About This Medicine

Product description & overview

Lamitor OD 50 Tablet SR contains Lamotrigine 50 mg, an antiepileptic medication primarily indicated for the management of epilepsy and bipolar disorder. Lamotrigine acts by stabilizing neuronal membranes through the inhibition of voltage-sensitive sodium channels, thereby reducing the release of excitatory neurotransmitters such as glutamate. This mechanism helps in controlling seizures and mood episodes. Lamitor OD 50 Tablet SR is a sustained-release formulation designed to provide a consistent plasma concentration, enhancing patient compliance by allowing once-daily dosing. It is effective in treating partial seizures, generalized tonic-clonic seizures, and seizures associated with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. Additionally, Lamotrigine is used as a mood stabilizer to delay the occurrence of mood episodes in bipolar disorder. The medication should be initiated at a low dose and titrated gradually to minimize the risk of serious skin reactions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome. Common adverse effects may include dizziness, headache, blurred vision, and nausea. Lamitor OD 50 Tablet SR should be used under medical supervision, with careful monitoring for hypersensitivity reactions and interactions with other antiepileptic drugs. It is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to Lamotrigine or any excipients in the formulation.
