I take 200mg of Lamictal every night and 37.5 mg of phentermine every night. This morning, without thinking about it, I took my night time medicines instead of my morning ones. I just received my pill reminder notification on my email and am not sure what to do. Do I take my full 200 mg dose tonight and just go about getting back on a regular schedule or do I drop it down tonight and continue taking the 200mg tomorrow night?
What if I took 200mg of Lamictal this morning accidentally when I’m supposed to take it at night?

Please, don’t be scared. I am an ATROCIOUS Rapid Cycling Bipolar One, I also have Horrible ADHD. When Doctors look at my Med List , they almost faint. I am extremely tolerant of Medication. Subsequently, when I have done, exactly what you did it is fine. How do your night Meds affect you ? If they knock you out, then I would suggest not taking them during the day. Especially, if you are driving. What reaction would you get, if you did not take your night meds ? I HAVE to take ALL my Meds or I am so Manic, I am out of control. Calm down, go to Drugs. Com and look up the side effects of all your Medication. You already took your night Meds, are you feeling any bad effects ? If not, I would take your morning Meds at night. It all depends on the Meds you are taking? Are night ones to put you to sleep and Morning to perk you up ? I know Absolutely Everything about my Meds, so I can adjust dosages. However, if you are concerned, then call your Doctor and ask his or her opinion ? Please contact me anytime
