Umm, they want you to believe Lamictal is a clean side effect free drug, but it is faaaaar from it. Lamictal made me and others feel like we had MS. Lamictal depletes your body of folic acid, an essential nutrient. It also bind to the melanin in your skin and eyes. They admit on the information sheet you get when you first start it that they have no idea if this melanin binding will have a toxic side effect in the long term.
Lamictal has helped me enormously with depression and doesn't cause sexual side effects.
