Diagnosis? : Lamictal is used for the treatment of epilepsy as well as psychiatric conditions such as bipolar depression if prescribed by a doctor do not change the dosage without his or her advice!

Depends: A reaction to reducing Lamictal by half would depend on how much you are taking and what your level is, as well as why you are taking it. If it is used for seizures, you might have a seizure if halving it lowers the dose below a safe level; if used for depression, you might be anxious or start to feel symptoms for which you are being treated.
