Psychiatric disorder lamotrigine

Should certain antiepileptic drugs be contraindicated in patients with active psychosis Unfortunately there is not enough solid information to answer this question. Undoubtedly, anticonvulsants that are less likely to cause psychosis (lamotrigine, carbamazepine, oxcarbaze-pine, valproate) should be preferred (52,53). However, patients with psychoses have been successfully treated even with drugs that are believed to be associated with psychosis, such as vigabatrin. For example, in a prospective study in 10 patients with psychosis and epilepsy to whom vigabatrin was added, there was no aggravation of the psychiatric disorder (54). [Pg.652]
