Hi, BK. What dosage were you on and how slowly/quickly did you get there?
>Unfortunatley, I also experienced rather painful sore throats and a persistent and severe dandruff that made me eventually stop using the drug.
I've actually been taking zinc tablets at the first sign of dandruff, and it's helped. No sore throats (yet ... knock on wood). I did have them with Topamax, though.
So, BK, are you taking something different now and having as much or more success than your Lamictal trial?
Thanks for your input.
