Lamotrigine, an anticonvulsant medication, is employed either independently or in conjunction with other anticonvulsants for managing epilepsy. It’s possible for lamotrigine to induce minor side effects like rash, nausea, headache, and blurred vision. In rare instances, particularly among children, severe skin reactions might occur. Furthermore, flu-like symptoms, bruising, sore throat, and facial swelling may also manifest, necessitating timely reporting to a medical professional.
