I was on Lamotrogrine and immediately had a rash on most of my body. My doctor immediately started weening me off that and adding a new one. Good luck with it.

I think you should research about all of the medications you’ve heard of and talk to an epileptologist about your situation. Everyone has a different experience about epilepsy.

This is the only med I've never tried. Im taking clonozapam, zonisamide and now this all together. Nothing works for me.
I still get Focal periodically for the last 70 years

I was on it for a few months with no side effects, but like all other AEDs, my body eventually became used to it and overcame it with a severe Generalized Tonic Clonic. I've been on every med for Temporal Lobe Epilepsy.

I was Lamotrigine for three years but they didn’t help much they much because they caused more headaches and seizures
