Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Epilepsy / September 2003Tamictal Schedule
Good Morning All, The Neuro has my 5 year old daughter on the following ramp up schedule for Tamictal to treat her Absence Seizures: Week 1 - 5mg a day Week 2 - 10 mg a day Week 3 - 12.5mg a day Week 4 - 25mg a day Week 5 - 50mg a day Week 6 - 75mg a day Any opinion if this would be considered a normal ramp up cycle? A slow ramp up or faster then most? Thanks, Zeeke > Good Morning All, > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Zeeke > Good Morning All, > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Zeeke Oops...hit send before I was ready....WRAAA!!! My son was put on a 2 week interval between increases and he is finishing the end of his ramp up period at 40mg in the morning and 40 mg at night. Keep in mind that Lamictal is a secondary med for him...not a primary. Jedi and Son g'day zeeke, sounds pretty right to me. i took eight weeks to get to my optimal dosage.by the way, i found that it took several weeks after reaching my optimal dosage for my body to adjust to the medication and for it to work to its' full potential, so try to be patient. pablo > Good Morning All, > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > > Zeeke This was my schedule as well.
