I am changing my meds to lose weight with my psychiatrist's help. I am changing out lithium for lamictal and I am also on latuda. Are there any. In the first clinical trials involving the drug, 5 percent of adults with epilepsy lost weight while taking Lamictal, while between 1 and 5 percent of patients with bipolar I disorder gained weight while on the drug. The researchers didn't disclose how much weight the patients gained or lost. Hi there, I have just been prescribed Geodon the past week, and I was wondering if anyone out there has lost weight on Geodon? My doctor says that it will help me lose some of the weight that ive put on while taking seroquel and cymbalta. Has anyone lost weight on zipradone? Also, I have recently started taking 40mg of zipradone with 50mg of lamictal for bipolar. Does anyone else have anything to share about these 2 drugs taken together? Has anyone has experienced weight loss on Zoloft (100mg) I have lost 19 lbs in 35 day and I'm also on lamictal 100mg, prazosin 6mg, abilify 20mg, I appreciate all responses! No one here is your doctor. Do not take anything here as medical advice. Please do not ask for a diagnosis or attempt to diagnose yourself or others. Weight loss may be a rare side effect of lamotrigine, or Lamictal. In people with bipolar disorder, lamotigine may lead to weight loss among those who are obese, according to a 2006 study published by Charles L. Bowden and colleagues in the American Journal of Psychiatry. I have recently started taking Lamictal for bipolar, 25mg the first week and am now at 50mg until I see my pdoc next month. I have been having trouble eating since starting the lamictal. I feel hungry but my stomach is doing some nauseous, crampy thing. I have already lost a few pounds which I am thrilled about. Has anyone else had this experience before? PS, in treatment-emergent controlled studies 5% of all patients lost weight and 3% gained weight. Doesn't help if you're in that 3% but it's a very small percentage and weight gain was not considered medically relevant (ie. under 10lbs).
