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.

Dear Sriram,
Don't worry too much about labelling of tablets as antipsychotic (amisulpride, quetiapine) or antidepressant (serta, xet, mirtaz). We are trying to reclassify according to neurochemical changes they bring about. Some of them, like mirtaz, acts on 3 different neurochemicals. Psychiatrists use antipsychotics in depression and antidepressant in psychosis. All are for better improvement in your symptoms so that you can have a better quality of life.
