A member asked:
Is lamictal an effective mood stabilizer for bipolar disorder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Lamictal is an excellent mood stabilizer which I use frequently. The most common limiting factor is the potential for a very serious rash which requires very gradual titration to a therapeutic dose.
