I am a woman of 16 years with bipolar disorder (diagnosed it was very important for 3 years but was diagnosed in May 2007.)
I want to know whether the number and strength is my medicatons unusually high. She looks like me and sick with so many others, is therefore pushing for the pockets and savings banks, when my parents gave them. That's what I do:
DATE:

250 mg. Lamictal

PM
900 mg lithium --
Ambien
Thank you! In addition, any person dealing with bipolar in adolescence? How the hell? It seems impossible, either. How?

My son was on lithium and INVEGA. U know I got to a level of lithium in the blood to be effective. I do not see how one can say if ur on drugs or too much or too ur not aware of the circumstances. What has been diagnosed. There are four types of bipolar disorder. My son was diagnosed with manic trend. It was also Ambien for sleep. He went to college for his final year, he retired, bought in a shop, have exhausted their savings, they left the fraternity house and began to draw at home with a full foot son of singing that would conquer the world . Do you have bipolar tendencies? More please. I want to help.
ReplyDeleteHon - get one of these small med boxes that plug into a pocket and a bigger house, so you know what and the time it takes one or missed. I have to do. Volume 20 tablets per day - is not that much. I take Lamictal for seizures, which is also used for other problem is the same dose of the weakest among them, I think. You can enter names in your research and information at any height you. I'm not bipolar, but I have heart problems and seizures. Good luck and good. Just keep taking, as the doctor and issues relating to Dr make a list of questions before you remember something and take notes, I do. God bless you and have a good Christmas season ==
ReplyDeleteNot necessarily. It really depends on a number of things. However, the dose of lithium is not as high. In addition, youth tend to reduce blood levels of drugs much faster. Lithium is a simple matter to consider ... The psychiatrist should check the level. There are a lot of research on lithium, and what constitutes a therapeutic level in the blood (the amount you have in your blood work). If there is too much, which can also be detected. Lamictal does not seem like a huge dose, and neurologists to prescribe to their patients much higher doses than psychiatrists, and is safe in doses much higher.
ReplyDeleteSeveral studies have shown that lithium is probably the most effective drug for bipolar disorder. Despite the prevention of mania, very good, dOES does not protect against depression. This is why many people with bipolar disorder are prescribed an antidepressant ... Your Celexa. Ambien is for sleep. It works well for many people, but it is addictive, I would use it sparingly, if possible.
Hello --
ReplyDeleteI am almost 29 ..... with bipolar type 2 diagnosis 'm fairly new
Lamictal 100 mg
Lexapro 10 mg
Xanax 10mg as needed
10 or 15 mg of Remeron at night
The only way to manage is to stay on my medication. I am glad that worked for the drug combination was at first. I was diagnosed with depression OL regular "and so treated, 8 combinations of different drugs til I went to another doctor and he has the right diagnosis.
I lose my medication because of my job and insurance, only about 2-3 weeks. I thought he lost.
Hang in there with her taking drugs, should you feel weird after taking 5-6 weeks to get your doc and rigorously to kick. You have to forgive people for the granting of the experiments, the combo box on the right. Your daughter has alive long life, so make sure they never stop without medical training. I have lived long with a bipolar mother my whole life. It was a crisis at least once a year, there were approximately 1.5 years of repairs needed for longer than about 7 years hospitalized. Since then he has found the right medication and is a priority for free for 7 years. Good luck.
Honey, if you are with what never had to improve. Take your medicine, listen to your stay in therapy, continue on the advice of your doctor, do not try to even ask the diagnosis, therapy, or a waste of time car strangers what they think of Yahoo. You do not know that you do not know their situation and probably have their own problems if it here first.
ReplyDeleteBst luck stay in drugs.
That does not sound like much to me. I am also in a game:
ReplyDeleteZoloft 100mg
INVEGA 6 mg
Artane 2mg
Lunesta 3mg
The dose of lithium seems to follow the criteria for bipolar treatment.
ReplyDeleteThe usual maintenance dose of Lamictal from 100 to 500 mg.
Ambien is, you sleep.
Celexa is a antidpressant.
I wonder why drugs are so different .... But having said that everyone is different and your doctor have good results in patients treated with this combination had.
In general, doses that are not particularly high, on the recommendation of the accourding medicine ....
Please do not stop taking their medications .... While you might think it too much or too little, I'm your family and friends had a great improvement you will see ..... Not worth the frustration of feeling that you and your familyKey friends.
