Lacosamide

Lacosamide contains Lacosamide, which falls under the category of medications known as Antiepileptics. It is utilized as an adjunctive treatment for partial onset seizures in individuals who are 17 years of age or older.

Epilepsy is a neurological disorder affecting the central nervous system, leading to abnormal brain activity, resulting in seizures, altered behavior, unusual sensations, and sometimes loss of consciousness.

Before commencing treatment with Lacosamide, it is essential to inform your healthcare provider if you have ever experienced a certain type of heart rhythm problem known as second or third-degree AV block.

Lacosamide is not recommended for use by pregnant or breastfeeding women. The appropriate dosage will be determined by your doctor based on your child’s age, body weight, and the nature of the condition. It is advisable to consult your doctor before starting treatment.
