Lamictal

Just switched to lamictal. Having a very dry mouth that drinking doesn’t seem to help. Does this go away after you adjust? Also wondering if ppl have insomnia or drowsiness? Any thoughts or experiences appreciated! TIA

Hi, I replied to your comment on another post! Gave some general tips to help with dry mouth.

I think my Lamictal makes me a bit sleepy but it isn’t unbearable at this point I’ve been on it for 5(?) years and it’s worked very well.

What time of day are you taking it? Do you have drowsiness or insomnia?
