Yes. Minocyline does a bunch of stuff besides reducing glutamate activity. It is hard to know what properties are important in the treatment of depression. Besides, its antiglutamatergic properties are substantial at multiple sites, even in the absence of lamotrigine. For OCD, one might speculate that combining memantine with minocycline would have a synergistic effect.

I am not familiar with any psychotropic effects that Augmentin might have. The cool thing is that minocycline is used to treat Lyme Disease. So, if that is a concern of yours, you would be attacking your condition(s) from multiple angles.
