A member asked:
Can you tell me if i have been prescribed lamotrigine does it mean i have bipolar disorder?

It is important: To know what condition you are being treated for. You may or may not have a bipolar spectrum disorder. I sometimes treat patients with recalcitrant depression with lamictal. Please get more info from your provider. Take care.
