Lamictal Side Effects
Posted: 01-14-04 19:11pm

Hi! I have epilepsy, and i'm treated with lamictal. Ever since i'd started taking this medication, i've been suffering from ibs. Does anyone know if there is any connection between lamictal and gastrointestinal disorders? I'm really suffering!I hate this medicine!Help...
Thank you!

You Can Try Chinese Medicine

You can try chinese medicine. It is working for 8 friends of mine. No side effect. But I need the detail of you (age, weight, how long you've been suffering, etc) before recommend you one.

Smile hi, I have been taking lamictal for bipolar disorder for approximately 6 months now and have no problems with ibs. My doctor also didn't mention that as being one of the side effects so you may want to explore some other possibilities. Good luck. Smile
