My friend has not long been diagnosed next to Bipolar disorder. She was given Lamictal.currently she uses Nuvaring as her birth control, and she be told that this medicine would not interfere near Lamictal. What about other drugs? Such as Advil, tylenol, nyquil/dayquil, what more or less smoking pot? Also, if you are on this medication, should you not consume alcohol at all? Ive search online and havent really found any clear answers.thanks for the counsel!What other drugs/meds can be consumed while taking Lamictal?
here are some websites to look up meds...

Here are adjectives of the meds which interact with Lamictal...
Oral Contraceptives - the pill (not the shot or Nuvaring)
Carbamazepine - a mood stabilizer
Phenobarbital - an anti-convulsant & soporific
Phenytoin - an anti-convulsant
Rifampin - an antibiotic
Ritonavir - the treatment for AIDS
Acetaminophen - Tylenol
Valproic Acid - a mood stabilizer
Sertraline - an anti-depressant (Zoloft)
Hope this was sympathetic! Good luck with the alien treatment. I also do not advice your g/f to do drugs &/or drink alcohol. Both of these are depressants, which can throw her bipolar disorder adjectives over the place as well as interfere next to Lamictal.
