Mimsy Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I've been taking Lamictal for a couple months and I've recently been developing these rashes on both feet and the top of my thighs (they're weirdly symmetrical). I'm a bit worried, since there's that side-effect of the crazy skin dying life-threatening rash, so I was wondering if anyone knew what a warning sign of that was. The rashes are the worst they've been tonight. Also, I missed a dose a couple nights ago and a couple weeks ago, I think. Please answer, I am very itchy. Thanks!

tryp Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 If I had any new, significant rash while on Lamictal, I would call my doctor - better safe than sorry.

melissaw72 Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 Definitely give DR a call ... IF it is SJS, better to catch it early than to wait. It may not be SJS, but to be on the safe side I'd get checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
