About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Lacotide 200mg Tablet contains lacosamide, 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. This mechanism contributes to its efficacy in reducing seizure frequency. Lacotide is typically prescribed as adjunctive therapy in adults and pediatric patients aged four years and older. The recommended dosage should be individualized based on clinical response and tolerability, with gradual titration to minimize adverse effects. Common side effects include dizziness, headache, nausea, and fatigue, while serious adverse reactions are rare but may include cardiac conduction abnormalities; therefore, caution is advised in patients with preexisting cardiac conditions. Lacotide is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to lacosamide or any of its excipients. It is important to monitor patients for changes in seizure frequency and potential side effects during therapy. Lacotide should be used under strict medical supervision, and patients are advised not to discontinue therapy abruptly to avoid increased seizure risk. This medication should be stored at room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight.
