Article Synopsis
- Two patients with bipolar I and II disorders experienced subsyndromal depression following manic or hypomanic episodes before starting lamotrigine treatment.
- Patient 1 dealt with mood switching from antidepressants and seasonal mood instability, while Patient 2 had hippocampal atrophy and chronic headaches before treatment.
- Both patients showed significant improvement in social activity and work performance after adding lamotrigine, with olanzapine effectively treating the headache, suggesting lamotrigine may be beneficial for subsyndromal depression post-manic or mixed episodes.
