About Lamitor Tablets 100mg
Lamitor 100mg Tablets contain Lamotrigine, a well-established antiepileptic and mood-stabilising medication. Lamotrigine works by reducing abnormal electrical activity in the brain and modulating sodium channels to prevent seizures. It is prescribed for partial seizures, generalised tonic-clonic seizures, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, and as maintenance therapy in bipolar disorder to prevent depressive and manic episodes.
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNING: Lamotrigine carries a risk of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) — rare but potentially life-threatening skin reactions. Seek immediate medical attention if any rash, blistering, or skin peeling develops during treatment. Dose must be increased slowly and gradually — rapid dose escalation significantly increases SJS/TEN risk. Lamitor 100mg is a prescription (Rx) medicine — never self-medicate.
Key Benefits
- Controls partial seizures and generalised tonic-clonic seizures in epilepsy
- Used as add-on therapy for Lennox-Gastaut syndrome
- Stabilises mood in bipolar disorder — reduces depressive episode frequency
- Well-tolerated long-term antiepileptic with established clinical record
- Can be used as monotherapy or in combination with other antiepileptics
How to Use
Use Lamitor 100mg exactly as prescribed by your neurologist or psychiatrist. Dose must be titrated slowly — do not increase the dose rapidly. Swallow tablets whole with water. Do not stop suddenly — abrupt discontinuation can trigger rebound seizures. If co-prescribed with valproate, dose adjustment is mandatory (valproate increases Lamotrigine levels). Prescription required.
