Best Answer

Though most patients handle Lamictal well, hives is one of the potential side-effects of Lamictal, and you should call your doctor immediately if you experience hives. You should not discontinue taking the medication without letting your doctors know. There can be other serious side-effects of quitting the medication cold-turkey. Although hives are associated with a reaction to Lamictal, there is always a possibility that they may have been caused by something else.

Would 12.5 mg of Lamictal cause a slight rash on your stomach and a blister on your cheek?

It's a low dose for an adult... BUT yes Lamictal could be causing these effects. You should report this to your prescribing doctor IMMEDIATELY. It may be unrelated to the Lamictal, but it's quite likely that it could be due to the drug, especially if it's newly (under 4 months) started. In this case it's a sign of a more serious side effect of the Lamictal. Your docor will probably want to change your medication pretty rapidly if this is the case. Please don't panic however. I'd be grateful if you tell us how you get on.
