Lamictal 50 MG Tablet Dt contains lamotrigine (50 mg). Here's how it works:

• Voltage-sensitive sodium channel blocker: Lamotrigine blocks the action of voltage-sensitive sodium channels, which are protein molecules present in the neurons of the brain. These channels play a crucial role in generating and transmitting electrical signals in the brain.

• Inhibition of excitatory neurotransmitters: By blocking these channels, lamotrigine inhibits the release of excitatory neurotransmitters like glutamate and aspartate. These neurotransmitters are involved in increasing the electrical activity in the brain.

• Stabilization of electrical activity: Through these actions, lamotrigine stabilises the electrical activity in the brain, reducing the abnormal and excessive nerve activity that leads to seizures and mood disturbances.
