Examples
Levetiracetam had no effect on plasma concentrations of carbamazepine, valproate, topiramate, or lamotrigine.
Valproate is recommended first-line for generalized seizures with lamotrigine being second-line.
Higher doses and rapid introduction of allopurinol and lamotrigine may also increase the risk of developing SJS/TEN.
This may reduce control; therefore, dosage adjustments of lamotrigine may be necessary.
