A member asked:

Hello, i recently started taking a combination of lamictal (25 mg a day) and ritalin (45 mg a day). what should i expect from this combo?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No interaction.: No interactions of Risk Level A or greater identified. Ritalin will help you with your attention, energy and mood, but can cause anxiety for some individuals. Lamictal is a mood stabilizer to treat mostly bipolar depression and mood instability.
