Lamotrigin Teva (Lamotrigine)

Lamotrigine blocks voltage‑gated sodium channels in neurons, which stabilizes the neuronal membrane and reduces the release of excitatory neurotransmitters such as glutamate. This action diminishes seizure activity and contributes to mood stabilization.

The appropriate dose of lamotrigine is individualized and determined by a qualified prescriber based on the patient’s condition, age, concomitant medications, and renal or hepatic function. Patients should follow the dosing regimen provided by their healthcare professional.

Safety data for lamotrigine during pregnancy and lactation are limited. Women who are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding should discuss potential risks and benefits with their physician to make an informed decision.

Compared with carbamazepine, lamotrigine generally has a lower risk of drug‑induced hyponatremia and fewer cognitive side effects, but it requires careful titration to avoid skin reactions. Unlike valproate, lamotrigine is not associated with weight gain or teratogenicity, making it a preferred option for many patients.

Lamotrigine tablets should be stored at room temperature, below 25 °C, in the original packaging to protect them from moisture and light. Keep the product out of reach of children and do not use if the packaging is damaged.

Lamotrigine is taken orally, usually as a tablet that should be swallowed whole with water. It can be taken with or without food, but the dosing schedule should be followed exactly as prescribed to maintain therapeutic levels.

Patients should be alert for severe skin reactions such as Stevens‑Johnson syndrome or toxic epidermal necrolysis, signs of blood disorders like agranulocytosis, liver dysfunction, and any new or worsening mood changes, including suicidal thoughts. Immediate medical attention is required if any of these occur.

Lamotrigine is contraindicated in individuals with a known hypersensitivity to the drug or any of its components, and it should be used with caution in patients with severe hepatic impairment. Those with a history of serious skin reactions to other anticonvulsants should also avoid it.
