Q: Generic Lamotrigine

I would appreciate getting an opinion concerning the different GENERIC Lamotrigine meds available now days on the market as a cheaper(sometimes significantly cheaper)alternative to the original Lamictal for the BP2 treatment

 

I am referring to :

 

Lamotrix(Medochimie Cyprus made)
Lamolep(Gedeon Richter Hungary made)
Lamotrin (Actavis Island made)
Plexxo(Desitin Germany made)

i have been taking the generic for a couple of weeks now and have not noticed any difference.  the pills are very oddly shaped, but they don't taste nearly as bad as brand lamictal!  it's such a money savings for me that there's no question about taking the generic now that it's available.
