Is Smoking Marijuana Advisable While On Lamotrigine And Trileptal?

I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder 6 months ago after a marijuana-induced manic episode. I am currently on lamotrigine (anti-depressant) and trileptal (mood stabilizer) as well as doxycycline (acne medication). Will there be serious complications if I smoke weed again? I have not ingested any since my diagnosis.

Hi and welcome.
It is not advisable at all, and especially if taken with this type of medications so you should be really caotious and avoid it maximally.
Wish you good health. Regards
