What is Lamotrigine?

Therapeutic Class:

Active Ingredients: Lamotrigine

Lamotrigine Tablets are an anticonvulsant drug used to treat epileptic seizures in both adults and children. This medication is indicated as a mood stabilizer for bipolar disorder (manic depression) in adults. Lamotrigine may be prescribed alone or in combination with other drugs to treat these conditions.

Lamotrigine has shown promise for the treatment of migraines with aura and diabetic neuropathic pain. It is used off-label for rapid-cycling bipolar depression, fibromyalgia, schizophrenia, unipolar depression, panic disorder, and binge eating disorder.

Lamotrigine is an antiepileptic or anticonvulsant drug within the phenyltriazine family. Though the exact mechanism of action is not fully researched, it is thought to work by inhibiting sodium currents. This action slows down the electrical signals in the brain, which stops seizures.

AdvaCare Pharma is the manufacturer and exporter of Lamotrigine Tablets. We routinely inspect our production facilities to ensure our products meet quality and safety standards. We offer a wide range of high-quality and cost-effective medications that are available for distribution.

Uses

What is Lamotrigine used for?

It is used to treat epilepsy seizures, including partial seizures, primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures, and generalized seizures caused by Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. It is also used as a maintenance treatment for bipolar I disorder.

How are Lamotrigine Tablets used?

This medication is intended to be taken orally.

What dose should be taken?

For bipolar I disorder, as a monotherapy the usual dose for adults is 200mg taken once per day.

For partial seizures, the usual dose is 250mg.

For Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and primary generalized tonic clonic seizures, as an adjunct treatment, the usual dose is 100-500mg per day, taken once or divided twice per day.

Refer to a doctor or pharmacist for more specific guidelines on dosage. Do not exceed what they advise.

Side Effects

As with all pharmaceuticals, some unwanted effects can occur from the use of Lamotrigine Tablets.

Common side effects include, but may not be limited to:

  • headache
  • dizziness
  • blurry vision or double vision
  • dry mouth or gastrointestinal effects
  • insomnia

Seek medical attention if the following develop:

  • skin rash, particularly in those who are also taking valproic acid or divalproex
  • flu-like symptoms
  • confusion or neck stiffness
  • mood changes or thoughts of suicide
  • signs of an allergic reaction

For a comprehensive understanding of all potential side effects, consult a medical professional.

If any symptoms persist or worsen, or you notice any other symptoms, please call your doctor immediately.

Lamotrigine 25mg: Why the most common dosage?

Lamotrigine 25mg is widely prescribed as it allows for gradual titration, minimizing the risk of severe skin reactions. Higher doses like Lamotrigine 100mg or Lamotrigine 200mg may be used for maintenance but require careful monitoring.

Precautions

Do NOT use Lamotrigine Tablets if: • You are allergic or hypersensitive to any of the ingredients.

This medication may not be suitable for people with certain conditions, including:

  • previous allergic reaction to other seizure medications
  • kidney or liver disease
  • heart problems like arrhythmia
  • depression
  • suicidal thoughts
  • meningitis with previous lamotrigine treatment

This medicine should only be used during pregnancy and breastfeeding if the benefits outweigh the risks. Do not start or stop seizure treatment without consulting a doctor or healthcare professional before treatment.

Many drugs are known to interact with lamotrigine, including valproic acid, divalproex, and birth control pills.

This drug may increase suicidal thoughts. It is important for you and your family or caregivers to watch for sudden changes in behavior.

Regular blood tests may be necessary to ensure you are taking the most effective dose. Lamotrigine may affect the results of drug-screening urine tests.

Do not stop taking this medication without consulting a doctor for a tapering schedule.

*Regulatory compliance may vary according to production standard, import requirements and/or manufacturing origin.
