Patient summary
Lamotrigine 25mg to 200mg, as plain and dispersible tablets, used in the management of epilepsy and bipolar disorder. It blocks voltage-gated sodium channels.
Mechanism of action
Lamotrigine stabilizes neuronal membranes by inhibiting voltage-gated sodium channels, which limits the release of excitatory neurotransmitters like glutamate. This mechanism supports control of seizure thresholds and mood stabilisation.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Pregnancy: Use with caution as risks to the foetus are currently being evaluated. Breastfeeding: Small amounts pass into breast milk; monitoring is recommended.
Lamotrigine is an antiepileptic tablet; its active ingredient is lamotrigine. It is available as 25, 50, 100 and 200mg tablets and is used for epilepsy and bipolar disorder. The originator company is GSK.
It works by inhibiting voltage-gated sodium channels, stabilising neuronal membranes and limiting release of excitatory neurotransmitters such as glutamate. Serious skin rashes can occur, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis and haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, all of which require immediate medical attention; any rash should be reviewed by a doctor straight away. Hypersensitivity to lamotrigine is a contraindication. It interacts with valproate, carbamazepine, phenytoin and hormonal contraceptives; valproate raises the risk of rash (MedlinePlus). It is not recommended for children under 2 years. Do not stop treatment abruptly without medical advice.
