Lamotrigine is not a primary antidepressant, but a weak mood stabiliser. So if the symptoms are still present consult any psychiatrist in person or online and get a primary antidepressant. All the best.

Dear lybrate-user,
please visit your doctor often and discuss the changes you need to make. Both lamotrigine and fludac will be increased according to the assessment on that visit. In bipolar disorder. The mood changes from low to normal and high. At times, even mixed phase will be there. Accordingly the fludac will be increased or stopped, an anti-psychotic may be added for short term. Lamotrigine will be continuous for all phases of mood.

You need and should take BP medicines. You should get aECG and serum lipid profile done. Also check yourself for diabetes. With these reports you see a physician who will give medicine for High BP. You also show your report to the doctor who is treating your bipolar disorder. He may change your medications if he or she feels so. Finally you should restrict your salt intake and do regular exercise and meditation.

If your problem was due to something wrong in body, it was best treated with medicines. No relief means it is related to underlying psychological problems.
Seek help from a psychologist to identify your problem and get a permanent resolution.
