I wanted to see if anyone can tell me the known side effects with smoking majiuana and taking lamictal, if any. I have been trying to get info on this for about 2 months and can not seem to get anything back on it. Of course my doctor and counselor says tht it is not good to do ANY drugs...but I have to be honest, I smoke and dont plan on stopping...so I would like to know what to expect when these two are combined. Thank you and I would love to hear a responce about this. By the way, I do not smoke alone so I need to know what to expect so I can educate my husband. Thank you again, Leilani

I could provide you with an answer, however, our site is not here to help someone abuse drugs or any type, or assist them in using illegal drugs. Sorry.

Just to add, so you do know for sure, there aren't any interactions with Marijuana and prescription meds, so there is no danger.
I aprreicate your honesty. I have needed an opinion other then my therapist saying it is not good. Again, Thank you, Leilani

You are very welcome, just so you are aware that we do not condone its use, however, you will be safe.
Contrary to the propaganda put out by the Just Say No and the Anti-Drug campaigns, it does not react with most meds at all, other than sometimes to enhance the high or drowsiness, but it will not cause serious adverse effects, or overdose.
If you think about, you will realize that is why so many people would like to see it legalized for medical usage, and why so many patients with Glaucoma and Cancer want to use it, they can relax and ease their pain, without worrying about unwanted side effects or interactions with other meds.
It has no effect on pepole wo take it and smoke maryjay, my friend is on it and he smokes more than i do and his doctors say what your theripest said but he has been on it for 4 years and has never had a problem.
Maryjane is a natural drug. I dont care what anybody says it does nothing to your brain or body besides make you lazy and want to eat. I smoked for years and graduated college at the top of my class at 34 yrs old so I'm living proof all the crap you see on tv is pure bull. I've been on all kinds of meds while I was smoking and had no affects. All I can say is keep on smokin.
smoke weed all you want, weed dosnt effect anything what so ever, if anything weed helps obviously. but weed with any medication what so ever is fine. smoking crack or doing herione some b.s. like that though i wouldnt recomend
If your smoking pot and taking lamictal is wrong! Physically I am not sure.. but mentially just maybe it's the reason you are on Lamictal. You are depressed right? It makes you depressed after you have been smoking for some time. It's an addition and additions affect you mentally.. you smoke to feel better you dont need it now you have lamitial ..go and fine yourself.. live free.. and feel the you... it can be done
I have just recently starting taking this medication for a siezure disorder and i have continued to smoke about a blunt a day and it doesnt really effect me any different then before i began taking the meds. i dont smoke week because im depressed or anything i jus enjoy the feeling of calmness. so i say keep smokin that good GREEN! =]
