Guest guest Posted August 22, 2002 Report Share Posted August 22, 2002 I know you've posted this before but remind me again how do you get 5mg out of a 25mg pill with accuracy. I suppose you crush the tablet and try to split 5 ways by eyeing it and hope its even? Connie lamictal wean/? > > > Hi all > > Need some advice from anyone who has experienced a Lamictal wean. My 11 year old has gone from 400mg a day to now 100mg per day divided dose. We are decreasing 50 mg per week. So far all went smoothly. A few myoclonics and one tonic/clonic after every reduction. He has become more alert throughout this 300mg reduction so its been a good thing. But now at 100mg per day he is having increased tonic/clonics every day just an hour or so before getting his medication. Are these just withdrawals? Do I continue the wean, stop it, or slow it down some. His keto ratio is 4:1 and ketones are never large, usually about 80, sometimes 60 which seems low. Can the weaning affect ketosis? Whats going on? Any ideas much needed and appreciated. > > Connie ('s mom) > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
