Overview
Lamotrigine 100mg Tablets (56 pack) contain lamotrigine, an anti-epileptic medicine used to control seizures in epilepsy and to prevent the depressive episodes of bipolar disorder. Lamotrigine stabilises overactive electrical signalling in the brain, helping prevent seizures and mood episodes. It is valued for being relatively non-sedating and weight-neutral, used as part of long-term treatment.
Directions for Use
This is a prescription medicine. Take only as directed by your doctor or pharmacist. Take exactly as prescribed, with or without food, at consistent times. Lamotrigine MUST be started at a low dose and increased very slowly over weeks. This gradual titration is essential to reduce the risk of serious rash, so never speed it up or restart at the full dose after missed days without advice. Do not stop suddenly. Withdrawal must be gradual to avoid seizures. Confirm your regimen with your doctor.
Seek urgent medical attention at the FIRST sign of any skin rash, blistering, mouth sores, or fever and swollen glands. Lamotrigine can rarely cause life-threatening skin reactions, especially early in treatment or if the dose is increased too quickly. Report low mood or thoughts of self-harm. Tell your doctor about all medicines, especially other epilepsy medicines and hormonal contraceptives (which interact with lamotrigine). Do not stop suddenly. Use in pregnancy is managed carefully. Discuss planning with your doctor. This product information is for general guidance only and does not replace professional medical advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare provider before starting any new medication or supplement. Keep all medicines out of reach of children.
