Most people with epilepsy live a full life span. However, the risk of premature death is increased by being fatally injured during a seizure; sometimes epilepsy is a symptom for a more seriously underlying condition like stroke or tumor which carries an increased risk of death; and a series of prolonged seizures in rapid succession can also be life threatening.
Are there problems with generic lamotrigine?
Yes, most of the MedWatch adverse events involved a loss of response, but many involved a loss of response and additional side effects that did not occur with the brand-name Lamictal. According to a clinical nurse specialist who filed 37 MedWatch reports, she believes the generic equivalents of Lamictal differ markedly in bioequivalence, enough so that they may actually cause harm to patients. She also worries that the problems with generics AEDs are more pervasive than being reported.
Where can I learn more about epilepsy?
Try the Epilepsy Foundation or the Charlie Foundation for pediatric epilepsy
If anti-epileptic drugs don’t work, are there other options?
Yes, for some there is surgery and for children, dietary therapy known as the ketogenic diet. According to Wikipedia, the ketogenic diet is a high-fat, adequate-protein, low-carbohydrate diet primarily used to treat difficult-to-control epilepsy in children. The diet mimics aspects of starvation by forcing the body to burn fats rather than carbohydrates. Normally, the carbohydrates contained in food are converted into glucose, which is then transported around the body and is particularly important in fuelling brain function. However, if there are very little carbohydrates in the diet, the liver converts fat into fatty acids and ketone bodies. The ketone bodies pass into the brain and replace glucose as an energy source. An elevated level of ketone bodies in the blood, a state known as ketosis (like the Atkins diet), leads to a reduction in the frequency of epileptic seizures.
