Notice it says "in the first 2 to 8 weeks". This is why Lamictal is titrated slowly. 25mg for 2 weeks, 50mg for 2 weeks, 75mg for 2 weeks, 100mg for 2 weeks. At 100mg if any substantial rash was going to happen it would be extremely low.
This is how psychiatrists and other dispensers of Lamictal dispense Lamictal. Because anything leading towards SJS is not viable.
