What Is Lamotrigine 200mg?

Lamotrigine is an anticonvulsant, or antiepileptic, medication sold under the brand name Lamictal. It works by calming abnormal electrical activity in the brain, which helps control seizures and stabilize mood. It is FDA-approved to treat several seizure types in epilepsy and for maintenance treatment of bipolar I disorder to help delay mood episodes. Lamotrigine is available by prescription only, and dosing is increased gradually to reduce the risk of serious skin reactions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is lamotrigine used for?

Lamotrigine is FDA-approved to treat certain seizure types in epilepsy, including partial-onset seizures, primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures, and seizures in Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. It is also approved for maintenance treatment of bipolar I disorder to help delay mood episodes.

Do I need a prescription for lamotrigine 200mg?

Yes, lamotrigine is a prescription-only medication in the U.S. A licensed healthcare provider must review your health information and issue or verify a valid prescription before we can dispense it.

How does ordering and shipping work?

After you place your order, a licensed provider or pharmacist reviews your prescription and medical details. Once approved, your medication is dispensed by our licensed U.S. pharmacy and shipped directly to your address in discreet packaging.

Why is lamotrigine started at a low dose?

Lamotrigine carries a boxed warning for serious skin rashes, and the risk is higher with rapid dose increases. Starting low and titrating slowly over several weeks reduces this risk, so it is important to follow your prescriber's schedule exactly.

Is lamotrigine the same as Lamictal?

Yes, lamotrigine is the generic name for the brand-name medication Lamictal. Both contain the same active ingredient and are held to the same FDA standards for quality and effectiveness.

What should I do if I develop a rash while taking lamotrigine?

Contact your healthcare provider right away, as any rash could be an early sign of a serious reaction. Do not stop or restart the medication on your own without medical guidance.

Can I stop taking lamotrigine suddenly?

No, stopping lamotrigine abruptly can increase the risk of seizures, even in people taking it for bipolar disorder. Your provider will typically taper the dose gradually over at least two weeks unless safety concerns require faster discontinuation.
