Lamez OD 50 Tablet 1*10

Product introduction
Lamez OD 50 Tablet SR is a medicine used to manage epilepsy and bipolar disorder. It helps in controlling the abnormal brain signals that cause seizures and also stabilizes mood swings by balancing the activity of nerve cells in the brain.

This medicine can be taken alone or with other medications as advised by your doctor. It can be consumed with or without meals. Your doctor will determine the appropriate dosage, which may be gradually increased to achieve the desired effect. It may take a few weeks before you notice improvement, so it is important to take it regularly without skipping doses. Do not stop taking it suddenly, even if you feel better, as it may lead to more frequent seizures or worsening mood symptoms.

The common side effects of this medicine may include headache, nausea, vomiting, skin rash, dizziness, and difficulty sleeping. These effects are usually temporary, but if they persist or worsen, you should inform your doctor. In some cases, it may cause severe skin reactions, so report any unusual rash immediately. Long-term use of this medicine can sometimes weaken bones, making them more prone to fractures.

Before starting this medication, inform your doctor if you have liver or kidney problems, a history of depression, or suicidal thoughts. Also, let them know about any other medicines you are taking, including birth control pills, as they may interact with Lamez OD 50. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, discuss with your doctor as dosage adjustments may be necessary. Avoid driving or operating machinery if you feel dizzy or drowsy after taking this medicine. Regular blood tests may be recommended to monitor your response to treatment.
