A Brief Description Of Lamictal (Lamotrigine) Generic Name: Lamotrigine Lamictal (Lamotrigine) is an anticonvulsant drug used in the treatment of epilepsy and bipolar disorder. For epilepsy, it is used to treat partial seizures, primary and secondary tonic-clonic seizures, and seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. Lamotrigine also acts as a mood stabilizer and is the first medication since lithium to be granted approval by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the maintenance treatment of bipolar type I. What Are The Most Common Uses For Lamictal (Lamotrigine)? Lamictal (Lamotrigine) can be used alone or with other medications to prevent or control seizures (epilepsy) in people aged 2 and older. It may also be used to help prevent the extreme mood swings of bipolar disorder in people aged 18 and older. How Does Lamictal (Lamotrigine) Work? Lamictal (Lamotrigine) works by affecting neurotransmitters in the brain, and although the exact mechanism isn't known, doctors suspect that its effects are caused by reducing glutamate in the brain. Glutamate acts as a nerve-exciting substance that's released in the brain when electrical signals have built up in nerve cells, which actually excites more nerve cells, which in turn is believed to trigger epileptic seizures and may play a role in depression and mood cycling. By suppressing glutamate, Lamictal (Lamotrigine) prevents the nerve stimulation that leads to a seizure. Is A Prescription Required To Purchase Lamictal (Lamotrigine)?
