Lamictal hydroxyzine | | “We're having an issue processing this transfer. Please contact CVS Pharmacy.”

I transferred 3 medications (lamictal, hydroxyzine, vienva) and the hydroxyzine is listed as “in progress”. The other two say “We're having an issue processing this transfer. Please contact CVS Pharmacy.” I plan to call after work (cant wait to waste 20 minutes talking to a robot instead of a real person).
I’d like to not fall into a manic episode, so please tell me why the hell this could be happening.

TL;DR I've tried alot of meds already and nothing helped. Looking for advice or recommendations.
I'm on effexor 75mg xr in the morning. Clonidine 3x a day (it does nothing, more of a placebo) and was on mirtazipine 15mg but had to quit because it was making me wig out in my sleep. Like jerking my head side to side. And setting up in my sleep and starring forward. It also give me real bad RLS
So I've tried mirtazapine, Hydroxyzine, olanzapine, risperdone, sertraline, propranolol and a few others i dont remember right off.
My sister give ne a couple trazodone so Im going to try one tonight and see how that does me. I go to the psych Tuesday. I been thinking about asking her for wellbutrin to go with my effexor and see how she feels about nurotin/gabapentin 3x a day. She is against all controls though so probably label me as drug seeking. So anyone have any ideas as what else i could try? I been looking at lamictal, abilify, and a few others but would like some personal experiences with meds that didn't cause alot of side effects.

18F 254lbs on nexplanon and just starting lamictal I be fuckin with uhhhhhhhh BPD & autism diagnosed yes. Let's say lamictal. Because previously the longest a medication took to do anything was three days, which was with Prozac. I used to take hydroxyzine and guanfacine and those worked same day, and I just started taking lamictal today and I already feel different (hours after taking it but same day) idk if it's just my brain tricking itself into saying it's working or if it's at all possible for it to work same day. Can't be sure.

I do not smoke cigarettes or drink, but I do smoke marijuana.
When I was 13 I was put on Lithium and it caused thyroid issues, so I've been on levothyroxine for years. This year I was taken off of Lithium and put on Lamictal, so I asked the dr for a thyroid test to see if the change in medication had caused any changes in my thyroid. She ordered a TSH. The TSH came back and I was concerned by the results, but because its technically in the MyChart normal range, all she commented was "Thyroid is normal" and nothing else. I went from consistently being in the 2.00 to 3.00 range to suddenly this test being a .53. I'm extremely concerned by this and am thinking I should ask for a referral to an endocrinologist, because theres no way this is normal with the side effects I've been having recently (I've gained 10lbs despite no change in diet or exercise in two weeks, I've been sleeping a lot more than I should due to fatigue, and I've been experiencing muscle soreness/pain.)
I guess what I'm wondering is if I'm overreacting to be concerned, or if I really should pursue a second opinion. I'm on the spectrum and advocating for myself is very hard because I'm a perpetual people pleaser due to my inability to read social situations and the need to be liked, even by professionals, so an opinion by someone who knows what they're talking about would make me feel better asking for this. This may be common sense, but I wouldn't know. I only started going to appointments without my mother recently, I have no scope of these kinds of situations. Sorry if I'm overexplaining.
For context of medications I currently take just in case it effects this:
Levothyroxine 50mg every morning (on an empty stomach before all my other pills by about an hour)
Abilify 5mg every morning
Hydroxyzine as needed for anxiety 50mg (haven't been taking in the past month because new med Lamictal has helped my anxiety a lot)
Buspar 10mg every morning
Lamictal 300mg every morning
I appreciate your help.

28M On hydroxyzine, Zyprexa, klonopin, and lamictal for symptom management.
My neurologist has determined that my encephalitis is strictly t-cell mediated with no autoantibody involvement.
I was prescribed 2g/kg of IVIG gammagard every month (induction dose is same as maintenance).
I know ivig is more effective against b-cell mediated encephalitis, but can it be effective in strictly T cell mediated AE?
Thank you for any input.

Ok, first and foremost, i'm not diagnosed, i suspected, acted on what i could without meds and its helped a ton so i'm rolling with it, i can't afford to go right now.
So today was day two, i have autism specturm disorder, ADHD, PCOS, GAD and CPTSD
I take zoloft, lamictal,simpeese(birth control), hydroxyzine pamoate, metformin,berberine, and inositol supplaments.

I started seeing more in my face symptoms about the same time my meds made me agressivly aware i was indeed on the spectrum. Symptoms that were somewhat tolerable got worse after the lamictal and its been that way sense. I've had dizzy spells for years, light headedness, heart racing, all that but it was never much to me so i ignored it half the time. Sense taking the medication, i have had severe thermodysregulation which is what landed me on the POTS FYP. So have a couple things i wanna ask about.
First of all, do you all get a burning sensation from sudden heat change? my house is somewhere in the 60's and as soon as i hit the 70's outside plus humidity, i felt my skin burning and then i got extremely itchy and was sweating insane amounts... i was literally taking care of my chickens.
Second, What in the world do you do when you need to stand long periods and can't step away to sit down? I've resorted to a little tikes yellow chair next to my stove to have some way to sit and get off my feet, they have a nasty habbit of turning purple, but the major reason is because if i ignore that over exasperated feeling i get, i get super lightheaded, heart racing, and then i'm laying down with my feet up waiting for the room to stop spinning and my head to stop hurting. it really sucks. But in cases where your away and literally can't sit down... what then?

i'm sorry i am new to talking about it and i just hope i don't come off wierd. advice would help.
oh! and i do have compression socks but i'm not a fan of waring them inside because of the senory issue i have with stuff poking the bottom of my feet..

i’m 17 years old, i have struggled with mental illness since childhood. i have been emotionally neglected by my parents as a child ( my mom partied, and brought men over all the time, and my dad is an alcoholic — both suffer from mental health issues ) my sister was the parent of me while she was just a teenager. she is 25 now and we are close, but she lives back home and i sometimes visit her. my parents separated before i was born. my mom had full custody and i’d visit my dad sometimes. ( i dont really visit anymore because he lives in another state ) he had met some girl when i was 7 who then became my step mom, she was nice sometimes but really immature and ALSO invalidated tf out of me. they fought in front of me as years went on ( domestic and verbal abuse towards each other ). they separated in 2023 and my dad is dating a guy now lol ( happy for him ). both my dad and my mom had a very bad childhood and they both struggle to understand me. when was doing bad my mom would emotionally abuse me and so would my dad ( i had to deal with my mom more because i lived with her — and still do ). my mom would curse at me, criticize me, make me believe everything was my fault, say she would send me to foster care, told me to kill myself, say i’m just like my dad, the list goes on. my dad isn’t and wasn’t as bad, but he had told me when i was doing bad one time that, “all you do is pop a few pills and go to your vacation spot” ( the mental hospital lol ). he has also told me to quite literally shut up when i was crying as a toddler. they are both better now, and try to understand me, but i’m still ill and i know that their abuse has left me traumatized. they had never hit me though, my mom would “pop” me when i was being bad/disrespectful, but i think that’s normal. i’m much closer with my dad on an emotional level even though i don’t even see him or call him much. last time i visited, i opened up to him a lot and he did not criticize me at all. i love him, and i love my mom too. i just don’t think me and my mom will have as much as a closer emotional bond like that because of how much she has invalidated, yelled, and blamed me for showing emotion. it’s like everything i do is a fuck up. like i said, she’s better now and learns to own up to her mistakes. she has literally came in my room and cried to me calling herself a bad mom, blaming herself because of why i am the way i am now. sometimes she understands me when i’m upset, but sometimes she still does her invalidating shit. thankfully, i’m emotionally mature enough to where i try not to let her words get to me, but they still sometimes do. because of my childhood where i was emotionally neglected and unheard, throughout my life, i’d attract people who were just really toxic towards me. my best friend in middle school was controlling, made me feel like shit, and traumatized me with her behavior. my relationships have ended because the person could not commit/was emotionally unavailable. i have both an anxious and avoidant attachment style. i had lost my first love recently who made my anxiety and worries go away, ( i am a lesbian ) and she left me because she had commitment issues, but also kind of did some shitty things to me to hurt me on purpose. i am finally starting to move on and still will always love her. i do believe i am a good person, and of course i’m not perfect, but i do believe i am fairly nice to people even when they do shitty things. i don’t know what i have, but i hope to get a diagnosis or something. i suspect autism, maybe ocd, or even both ( let me know if i really have to get into that ). one time when i was about 8/9 i tried to cut myself with a butter knife. after every minor inconvenience i’d think about not wanting to be here. around 14, ( during quarantine ) i randomly just decided that i would attempt suicide for the first time. after that, the attempts just kept happening every single age. ( 14,15,16,17 ) i’ve tried to kill myself by overdose of prescribed meds but it never worked. i’m scared of dying so, honestly part of it was probably for attention, but the other half of me actually just wanted life to be over. like, if it didn’t work, i hope people would pay attention to me. i had lost friends around 14 when i attempted ( pushed them away bc of my mental health issues ), which i can understand their pov. at the time, it was draining to be around me. now, i just keep to myself. and, i will admit, i’m more emotionally mature than an average adult. but i don’t know why, after everything, ( countless hospitals, med changes, support from multiple therapists, friends, family, psychiatrists ) i still just don’t want to be here. when things go wrong or im overwhelmed i uncontrollably hit and punch myself. i used to cut myself when i was 14-15, but i don’t like it anymore. sure, i’ve had moments where i DO enjoy being alive and love everything, but most of the time i literally just cannot. i know it’s getting bad again because i don’t even enjoy being around my friends anymore, i don’t like going to school, i don’t like anything. i just cannot kill myself bc im scared of going to a stupid mental hospital again and sitting days in the regular hospital smelling like shit bc they don’t have showers waiting to get admitted to the psychiatric hospital. it sucks feeling like literally nobody understands you, even though you have support. i’m very stuck and tbh the thing i wish for the most is just some disaster to happen to me that will kill me ( ie get murdered or something ) i take latuda, lamictal, abilify, and buspar ( and hydroxyzine as needed to help with my anxiety ) and they have helped, i think. but as of recently, they aren’t really helping lol. i have a therapist, and i have a psychiatrist. this isn’t a vent, this is me wanting help because i have no idea what to do. i want to live, i want to be happy, i want to look forward to my future and be a psychiatrist, and i want to be able to not shut down during stressful situations. i want to know what’s wrong with me. don’t say “nothing is wrong with you, you’re just human” because ive heard that quite a lot. i know i’m human, and i know it’s normal to feel these emotions. i know there are other people out there like me, and i know there are people who have given up. i know what depression and anxiety are, but i know that there has to be some kind of diagnosis for me. that’s all i want is to be aware of what could be wrong with me so i can be aware and get on meds that usually help with the diagnosis. i WANT to LIVE. i WANT to LIKE being around my friends again. i WANT to do good in school. senior year i am getting homeschooled and moving to another city in my state, so i’m pretty happy about that. i’m just worried i’ll drift apart from my friends and get fomo. just please, anyone, give me answers. help me and give me guidance to not feel like this anymore. IVE TRIED EVERYTHING. no coping skills work, so i dont want to hear “look into coping skills” mind you, i have been hospitalized 10 times, i know ALL about coping skills and breathing exercises. i know i typed a hell of a lot, but i hope whoever reads this will just say something. i want to be heard, and i want some answers so i don’t go through with another suicide attempt. thank you

BACKGROUND - 28M - On Zyprexa, hydroxyzine, Lamictal, Cellcept, IVIG - Have recently been diagnosed with autoimmune encephalitis - I have a slightly disrupted bbb (albumin index of 10.2
MY QUESTION
Is it safe to use topical minoxidil with a slightly compromised bbb? ChatGPT says this could cause worsening neurological symptoms or cerebral edema, but obviously ChatGPT is not a doctor.
Thank you for your help. I don’t want to end this hellish journey bald.

Left this as a comment on another post but felt it deserves it's own post. If you have any specific questions about my experiences on these drugs let me know. Incidentally, if anyone wants to fill me in on their experiences with Latuda, I'd be very grateful!

Bipolar type 1. I'm on lithium, lamictal, and Latuda for my BP, Vyvanse for ADHD, propranolol for lithium tremors, trazodone for sleep. I've been on vraylar long term, just stopped it in hospital to switch to Latuda, and I've historically been on and used risperidone as needed for agitation. Zyprexa (olanzapine) was used in-patient to calm agitation and racing thoughts. I've always been 💯 med compliant.
Here's the thing: My bipolar got worse over the years. I went from NOS to Type 1. So said, every med I've tried and been on has helped in different ways at different times. There is no panacea. But each med I'm on does a different job and helps me manage in a different way.
Lithium and lamictal are my base mood stabilizers, Latuda is my current base antipsychotic, and everything else is on top of it to address other challenges with the disease or side effects from these meds. I'm extremely, extremely grateful for the medication I have access to and the amazing benefits I've seen in my life from them.
Researching my medications so I know what to ask for has been absolutely vital, and it's part of why I have made it to where I am now as... intactly as I have.
Lithium: It cuts the mania, and it helps my brain heal. It has been shown to have a neuroregenerative and neuroprotective effect. 10/10
Lamictal: It reduces and shortens the intensity and duration of episodes. 10/10
Vraylar (discontinued): It controlled agitation irritability. 10/10
Latuda (current): It's supposed to handle bipolar depression, but I have yet to reach a therapeutic dose, I think. More to come. ?/10
Risperidone (discontinued): It controlled agitation and anger very quickly, short half life, high risk of metabolic complications long term led to switching from daily med to as needed to discontinued. 8/10
Zyprexa (only as needed): Calms racing thoughts and agitation very quickly. Very high risk of metabolic complications long term, only used in case of breakthrough symptoms. 6/10 (due to side effect profile)
Trazodone: Sleep aid. Non addictive, non habit forming, very gentle, powerful sedative that vastly improved the quality of my sleep in hospital, so I asked to continue it outpatient. 10/10
Propranolol: A blood pressure medication that treats lithium tremors as well as regulate high blood pressure. 10/10
Honorable mentions:
Buspar. Didn't work for me. 1/10
Klonopin. Only ever as needed, very powerful and gentle anxiolytic (benzo, so be careful). 9/10
Vistaril/hydroxyzine. Very gentle and effective anti anxiety medication, strongly recommend for as needed anxiety. 10/10
Brain skittles are powerful, helpful, amazing drugs that you can and should avail yourself of, under medical supervision. Everything in my life is better since going on and staying on them, with adjustments as necessary under my doctor's guidance. Combinations are often necessary, which is not uncommon, but your medical team and you can figure that out. I'm meeting with my psych in a few weeks to adjust my Latuda dose if necessary, since I just started it in hospital.
Good luck! Hope this helps!

Hi all. I have bipolar one and very intense anxiety… I take 150mg of lamictal and 30mg of buspar. I have tried EVERYTHING to sleep and still only get about two hours nightly. Trazodone, hydroxyzine, ambien, Xanax, clonazepam, lunesta, a beta blocker, melatonin, edibles, NyQuil, zquil, unisom, the list goes on. I’ve tried ice baths and bedtime hygiene. Still, I wake after two to three hours with a racing heart wide awake.
Is there anyone out there with this same problem who has any advice or something magical that finally worked for them? I’ve given up hope I’ll ever be able to sleep again.

UPDATE: Gaba was finr but it just doesn’t do it for me as a mood stabilizer so I switched to trileptal: thanks all :)
Hi!
BPD (borderline)-OCD-PTSD(might be C-PTSD) sufferer here!
I took lamictal, was allergic, like couldn't breathe, the hydroxyzine didn't help. I'm coming off it on Thursday and slowly integrating topamax. I like topamax even better than lamictal honestly. Lamictal treated the BPD, but maybe because topamax is for migraines, it's treating the OCD too even at just 12.5 mg (but I am taking 25 mg lamotrigine for 3 more days tapering off). Neither of them are giving me mental side effects, I'm doing well mentally but my body is rejecting them. I'm hoping it fades as I fully come off of lamictal fully and go into 25 mg topamax on Thursday morning, but it might not.
I'm getting a genesight test that'll come in a few weeks, but my psych told me gabapentin is next in line if I'm allergic to topamax as well so I wanted to ask if it's different enough where I wouldn't be allergic. Also the effects too. Do either of y'all like it as much as lamictal or topamax?
Thanks so much!

I’m on Latuda, lamictal, and Wellbutrin. Hydroxizine and or clonipen for sleep. Near the end of the night before I’ve taken anything for sleep (which I used to avoid taking anything for sleep) I get this overwhelming.. well kind of like this little wave or monster that climbs into my head and makes my body feel like terrible things are going to happen. Even when I’ve had a really good day. If so what do you do about it and is it even worth bringing up to my psychiatrist?
I just take hydroxyzine or clonipen now on the regular because I’m so scared of not sleeping and going into an episode.. I’m taking those meds earlier and earlier to avoid the doom feeling also ugh

TW discussion of psychiatry / medicalization
Hey everyone - I was diagnosed ASD-NOS when I was 20 in 2013 after begging for a diagnosis my whole life. I have been on and off medication since I was 15. I wanted to ask what medications people take and how do they help? Since ive been diagnosed I’ve been on Zoloft, seroquel, and the past four years I’ve been on lamictal, hydroxyzine, buspirone, and concerta. I’m going to switch to Wellbutrin and go off for to lamtical. I have feelings of extreme low self esteem, worry, lack of sleep, and paranoia. My autism symptoms I feel that are treated by medication are that it helped me recover some ability to thrive- ie everyday tasks like eating sleeping bathing changing clothes. Before my diagnosis i would refuse bathting and wear the same clothes for days, I would also never sleep and was very food adverse.

I have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder with psychotic features, PTSD, & Anxiety disorder for many years. I am prescribed lamictal, rexulti, seroquel, trintellix, hydroxyzine, and clonidine.. I do this every couple of months it seems where I feel like I don’t need my meds and that they are holding me back in someway & this past time it has gotten so bad that I have quit taking them for 3 or 4 months and I lied to everyone including my psychiatrist that I was taking my meds.. knowing the whole time I was not & I would even sometimes randomly take my meds out of nowhere to “feel better” or to show to my family that I am taking my meds. I started to use cocaine on top of all of this & I began to have seizures in October & I quit using for 2 months and then relapsed in January where I had seizures during every time I used…my paranoia is at an all time high & I am starting to catch myself slipping into psychosis which I fear greatly… I am finally coming to my senses.. I am lucky that I am still aware and I still have a chance to help myself prevent it from getting bad.. & full on losing touch again. I am done lying.. I’m back on my meds & I am going to tell my doctor and my family if I feel like getting off of these meds is a good idea again. I have to or I am going to die or end up in a lifelong psychiatric ward..

Lamictal Itchiness
So I started taking lamictal a week ago. 12.5mg for 4 days and then 25mg. However on the 4th day I got some itchiness and on the 5th (first day 25mg) the itchiness got really bad.
Talked to psych and she gave me hydroxyzine and said she hopes it gets better. I started seeing some red spots on me (I don’t think it was a rash but who knows) and told her I want to stop and she said okay.
Now the thing is - this is the first pill that worked wonders for me. At only 12.5mg I was feeling a difference I really liked - I was calmer, more content, less agitated and aggressive. Generally feeling better and being a better person.
I really don’t want to quit lamictal forever as I see there are no very similar alternatives. I want to try again and my psych is okay but I have severe health anxiety and given the andverse reactions I’m even more scared of SJS.
Any similar experience? Would you try it again?

Once weekly trulicity
Mid January I started having pustules on my scalp that itched something fierce. They were constantly leaking and itchy. They would scab over and be back the next day. I also was breaking out in itchy rashes on my elbows and hands. I went to my PCP the first of February and she put me on a dose of antibiotics and a round of steroids plus ketoconazole shampoo. At the end of the 10 days I was getting some relief but within days of finishing the medications it was back raging and the scalp was worse. My pcp then called in a topical clobetasol (sp) for the scalp and hydrocortisone cream for the arms. She referred me to a dermatologist and they did a biopsy on the arm and scalp. My scalp was bothering me so bad that I shaved my head. It would hurt for my hair to move, be brushed, wear a ponytail. The main area of irritation was across the back side of my scalp but a few random blister like places pop up at random on my scalp. The biopsy was very vague and the derm is now trying the valcylovir and hydroxyzine and I go back in 3 weeks. I AM MISERABLE. I want to rip my skin off. My scalp has gotten better but still no where near clear. My arms, hands and elbows flare up daily. Nothing has changed, no new lotions, body wash, detergent, etc. not sure if it’s worth noting but I had covid the week before Christmas. Attached are the pictures from current to oldest. My hands swell when I have blisters pop up. My pcp did run labs for lupus and rheumatoid and they all came back clear. I have really bad arthritis so we wanted to rule out that possibility. I need relief. I’ve also recently gained unexplained weight in the last 4-6 months. And just as I was posting this my bottom lip started itching and is puffy so I am taking a dose of benedryl before bed.

female 5’4 115 pounds dx: MDD, panic dis., GAD, DPDR (possibly cptsd) meds: OCP, supplemental vitamin
i have been in a state of constant derealization and depersonalization for 9 months now. it has made me drop out of college, being agoraphobic, and caused endless physical symptoms that are making me want to die. for starters, it feels like i am walking through a fog, but physically. my head feels like it’s buzzing/pressurized/incredibly uncomfortable to tthe point where i just hit myself in the head to try to get it to stop.
my vision is so screwed up, my eyes bounce around constantly and are unable to focus on anything. it hurts to try and read or look at anything and everything. they’re incredibly sensitive and it hurts.
i am constantly dizzy. to the point where i cannot walk straight. this goes hand in hand with the head pressure, and it feels like my head if full of cotton and cement.
my cognitive abilities have declined SO much. i cannot focus on anything, my mind feels blank and unable to process anything. i was a 4.0 gpa student in college and i can’t even read a book because of my eyesight and these other symptoms now.
i’ve seen a neurologist, neuro-phthalmologist, regular eye doctor, PCP, 6 psychiatrists who don’t even know what is going on, several ER doctors, a post infectious disease specialist, and more.
i am on the brink of suicide. i have tried so many medications and ive been in therapy but its gotten so bad i just cry and hit my head to make the buzzing feeling stop (but it never does). even just writing this right now feels unbearable. please help me the meds ive tried are paxil, prozac (3 times), lexapro, hydroxyzine, ativan, xanax, lamictal, zyprexa, and a few others i cannot recall. if it was anxiety, these would’ve helped but they haven’t.
i’m ready to die. i feel completely disconnected and unbearable in this body that is not okay anymore

have any of you taken Lamictal? And would you say it helped with mood regulations/stabilization?? Like was it worth the potential risks, i know they're rare but rare still equates to possible. I'm on Wellbutrin, hydroxyzine, and propranolol (as needed for the prop), and now starting the lamictal this coming week. thoughts/experiences?!
