I'm Taking More Medicine While Waiting

I usually take 3 tablets of Lamictal 100mg in the evening and 2 tablets in the morning.  I was on 3 tablets twice a day but it was too much.  It made me too groggy.  So I went to taking 3 at night and 2 in the morning.

Now after the seizure I added another half tablet to make it 2 and 1/2 in the morning and 3 at night.  I felt like I was "drunk" all day.  I could not drive. Caffeine from coffee and tea helped.

That's all I can think of for now.

  1. Did you get in to see your doctor already? I hope so!

  2. Watch the caffeine until you know how your body will react to it. Check with your doctor. I wish all the best for you and hope it is a single incident.

  3. Do be careful, John. I would recommend you see your doctor and bring this to his or her's attention. Please be careful changing the amount of medication on your own. This could be dangerous. My prayers are with you~

    1. I was so tired from taking the extra medication that it felt like I slept half the day away.
      Now I'm back on my usual dose.
