A member asked:
Can you still get a rash from lamictal even though i have been on it for 8 months? i am on 25 mg 1x a day.

It's possible: Yes, it's possible to develop a rash to most drugs even after being on them for a long time. However, it is a more rare phenomenon. Drug rashes typically occur within the first week to 6 weeks of starting a medication. If you have a rash, I recommend having it evaluated by a dermatologist to see what the cause can be and to treat it if it's bothersome.
