Lamotrigine is a novel antiepileptic drug, chemically unrelated to the major anticonvulsants in current use. Ten patients experienced a > 50% reduction in seizure frequency, 1 patient experienced no change in seizure frequency. All patients tolerated lamotrigine satisfactorily and no side-effects were reported.
