just thought i would put another post on to tell you how my autistic son brett is getting on with coming off his lamictal i told that he was on 750 mg a day we have had meetings with his doctors and they agreed we should start to reduce lamictal we are now 2 weeks into the reduction at 25mg a week he is now on 700mg a day the reduction does seem to have had a positive affect for brett his speech has become less repetitive his conversation is more meaning full the rash on his back is getting better he seems to be more settled in his self so at the moment things are ok i must say i make sure he has mis meds when he gets up in the morning around 7.30 then again around 7.00 on the night i will keep posting and letting people know how he is getting on
