kellmate Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Why are most of my lamictal pills round and a few like diamonds? O.o I received 120 tablets of 25 mgs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirMarshall Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 The are several different manufacturers. Pharmacies by from the lowest bidder and some change sources every few months. The pharmacist probably combined batches to fill your order. a.m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tryp Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Maybe I'm just paranoid, but if it were me, I'd use one of the drug-checkers in the Cocktails board to look up the pills and make sure that they're both the right drug and dose. Not that I doubt AM at all, but you can never be too sure with meds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiet storm Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 The teva pills are diamond shaped. My recent mail order was zydus(who the fuck is zydus?) and it was a round white tablet(200mg is anyway). Needless to say I called my pdoc and am going back on brand. Screw this generic merry go round shit. I always felt the name brand worked better anyway.

kellmate Posted June 17, 2009 Author Share Posted June 17, 2009 I'm not getting name brand? O.o isn't there some messed up stuff with generic lamictal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowen Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I'm not getting name brand? O.o isn't there some messed up stuff with generic lamictal? Nope, you're getting generics. Some people have problems with the generic (I think I've heard more complaints from the epilepsy crowd), some don't. I haven't had any problems with the generic, personally, but everyone is different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needless to say I called my pdoc and am going back on brand. Screw this generic merry go round shit. I always felt the name brand worked better anyway. I believe Zydus is a new generic manufacturing company just like Teva. Ps. I HATE the gerneric Lamictal! It's like swallowing a dust ball!. But it's cheaper so who cares, right?
