How long??: How long have you had eczema? How severe? How treated? Why are you asking about Stevens-Johnson??? This is RARE, Blisters, involves the mouth and eyes, usually includes joint symptoms, etc. Whatever made you worry about it?

You'll know: I'm very glad you're taking a proactive approach to your health. You're familiar with your eczema; the rashes that herald the dread, uncommon complication of lamotregine toxicity will be different. Many people need a medicine like this to help with the difficulties of life today and/or the chemistry of our brain, especially as we are learning new ways of acting and thinking. Stay on top of it.
