Question by Kaylee: Information on lamictal abuse?
I’m doing a paper on prescribed medication and I chose Lamictal from a list my teacher has assigned. I can’t seem to find anything on the abuse of this drug, if any abuse has been done.
Any information would be helpful, thanks.

Answer by Kelle
Prescription drugs are often abused.

Lamictal ( for bipolar disorder) can be abused. If one works why not take 3? If one isn’t working , why not take 5?

The side effects are exacerbated by the abuse.
