What are the side effects of lamictal if you stop taking it?

Answer:

With the combination of other psychotropic medications being abruptly stopped, I've experienced significant lightheadedness, nausea, and a feverish feeling. But this has been true for sudden stops to other psychotropic medicationsas well; both with and w/o the combination of others. Also, after the physical side effects have subsided, I have felt a significant decline in my mental health. I'd strongly advise you to continue the usage of Lamictal, however unpleasant it may be. Do not discontinue the usage of your medication without your doctor's instruction. It's very important for you to not abruptly stop taking your medication; it has led to hospitalization for me.
