About This Medicine

Product description & overview

Lacosam 200 Tablet contains lacosamide 200 mg, an antiepileptic agent indicated for the treatment of partial-onset seizures in patients with epilepsy. Lacosamide acts by selectively enhancing slow inactivation of voltage-gated sodium channels, stabilizing hyperexcitable neuronal membranes and inhibiting repetitive neuronal firing, thereby reducing seizure activity. This medication is typically prescribed as adjunctive therapy for adults and pediatric patients aged four years and older who have refractory partial-onset seizures. Lacosam 200 Tablet is administered orally, with dosage individualized based on clinical response and tolerability, starting at a lower dose and gradually titrated to minimize adverse effects. Common side effects include dizziness, headache, nausea, and fatigue, while serious adverse events may involve cardiac conduction abnormalities; therefore, caution is advised in patients with preexisting cardiac conditions. Regular monitoring of cardiac function and electrocardiograms may be recommended during treatment. Lacosamide has a favorable pharmacokinetic profile with rapid absorption, minimal protein binding, and primarily renal excretion. It is essential to adhere to prescribed dosing and consult healthcare providers before initiating or discontinuing therapy to ensure optimal seizure control and minimize risks. Lacosam 200 Tablet should be stored at room temperature, away from moisture and light.
