has anyone experienced SJS (the rash) as a result of lamictal? lamictal was a lifesaver, but i only lasted 8 days before the rash. i really want to start again, on a low dose and work my way up, but im worried i’ll have a reaction again. any advice?

      I think that's a pretty bad sign. I would call your doctor soon and let them know

      I'm not sure if this is any help, but I took up to 150mg of Lamictal/Lamotrigene for psychiatric reasons and luckily never experienced the dreaded rash, I'm not sure if I got lucky or if it's moreso about genetics/biology
