Lamotrigine acts by directly inhibiting voltage-sensitive sodium channels and, indirectly, blocks excitatory amino acid release and thereby stabilizes neuronal membranes. Common adverse reactions to lamotrigine include skin rash, dizziness, headache, diplopia, ataxia, blurred vision, nausea. Additionally, several accounts of multiorgan failure disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) have been reported in patients taking lamotrigine. In these reports, the had prolonged seizures with...
