It made me feel kind of weird. I also didn't like that it had serious risks on fetal development if I were to become pregnant.

this worked until I stared having all of these problems with my brain..I have had five grand mals in the last three months, when before that, I only had two in two years.. Three months ago I took lamictal for my mood, I had my first seizure, and its just gotten worse, and worse!!

On very low dosage. At higher dosage lost all warnings which was not good. Higher levels did not appear to have any significant control

Can't say it helped too much. He was averaging 5-7 with this combo.
