Article Synopsis
- Lamotrigine has been linked to serious blood-related side effects, especially with high starting doses or rapid dose increases.
- A 29-year-old woman developed severe neutropenia after being on a high initial dose of lamotrigine for two weeks.
- The timing of starting lamotrigine shortly after phenytoin, along with quick dose escalation, likely contributed to her blood disorder.
