Can I take Lametec with other antiepileptic medicines?
It is important that you inform your doctor if you are already on any other antiepileptic medicines. The reason being, taking Lametec with some antiepileptics (like valproate and carbamazepine) may increase the chances of developing side effects. Also, the dose of Lametec may need adjustment if taken with antiepileptic medicines such as oxcarbazepine, felbamate, gabapentin, levetiracetam, pregabalin, topiramate or zonisamide.
I started Lametec and developed a rash. The doctor stopped Lametec immediately and prescribed another medicine. Why?
There have been reports where patients developed serious rashes within 8 weeks of starting Lametec and were hospitalized. Sometimes these rashes turn into severe skin infections and may endanger the patient’s life. Therefore, it is advised that if a patient develops rashes after starting Lametec, it should be stopped and should not be restarted. Use of Lametec is stopped even if the rashes are mild and non-serious. It is because of this that your doctor changed the medicine.
