Important safety information about
Lamictal
The major side effect of Lamictal includes dizziness, headache, blurred
or double vision, lack of coordination, sleepiness, nausea, vomiting, insomnia,
and rash. Call your doctor if you find any other side effects or symptoms
you are concerned about.
Although most patients who develop rash while receiving Lamictal have mild
to moderate symptoms. Rarely cases of deaths have been reported. These serious
skin reactions are most likely to happen within the first 8 weeks of treatment
with Lamictal. Serious skin reactions occur more often in children than
in adults.
Rashes may be more likely to occur if you:
1) Take Lamictal in combination with valproic acid (brand
names: Depakene, Depakote),
2) Take a higher starting dose of Lamictal than your doctor
prescribed, or
3) Start taking more doses of Lamictal than prescribed.
It is difficult to predict whether a mild rash will develop into a more
serious one. So it is advisable to call your doctor if you experience a
skin rash, hives, fever, swollen lymph glands, painful sores in the mouth
or around the eyes, or swelling of the lips or tongue, since these symptoms
may be the first signs of a serious reaction. If you have any another questions
regarding this medicine then call your doctor. |
