When it comes to any sort of question around medication, you need to talk to your doctor. Different people will have different results with any epilepsy medication. Lamictal may work well for one person and not so well for another. The dosage is important. It can be taken with other epilepsy medications. There is also the factor of the kind of epilepsy someone has and how they are at present. As you can see there are many factors, so no simple answer to your question, without all those things properly considered. So, as already said, talk to your doctor.
