Can Lamictal or depakote cause false positive screening for opiates? I am not sure about it testing positive for opiates; however, Lamictal will show a positive reading on a PCP test. Until recently it was believed to be otherwise. I will provide the documented information and studies in a follow-up post.
yes it can
Yes it was first prescribed for seizures, and later for Bipolar disorder. Answer I have epilepsy and take 2 500mg pills a day. Has helped me but can be used with other epilepsy medications to help improve the loss of seizures. I am also on Lamictal and Keppra.
NO! Even though Topamax and Depakote are used to treat a lot of the same things, Depakote can cause interactions with Topamax. If your doctor prescribed both prescriptions to you, I would call a Walgreen's or CVS and ask a pharmacist. They usually have one specifically to answer questions about medications. But even the website for the makers of depakote and topamax said they shouldn't be taken together.
Oxycodone is an orally administered opioid analgesic and doesn't cause a nystagmus of any kind. Opioids, if given intravenously can cause a very transient vertical nystagmus, but not horizontal.
Not really, no.
yes
Numbness would not be a common side effect of Lamictal but we "never say never".
It absolutely DOES cause bloating and abdominal distension .
Depakote is not known to cause a false positive for THC on drug tests. However, it's always best to inform the testing facility about any medications you are taking to ensure accurate results.
i suggest consulting a doctor
Yes it does.
