I relapsed into a more severe depression when I tried to switch from name brand Lamictal 200 mg/day to generic lamotrigine. I tried two generics: Teva and Mylan. Teva was better than Mylan, but neither worked well at the same dosage used with Lamictal. In retrospect, I think I could have responded well were I to use a slightly higher dosage of the Teva brand. With Mylan, I needed to go up to 500 mg/day in order to get any response at all. However I experienced too many side effects. I don't have an explanation as to why this would occur. Of possible significance, the Teva brand had the same porous consistency as Lamictal. Teva was much harder and not porous.
