LAZURE 100MG 60TABS

Product Description:


Antiepileptic medicines

How to use:





Lazure is used in adults, adolescents and children aged 4 years and older.
It is used to treat a certain type of epilepsy called “partial-onset seizure with or without secondary generalisation”.
In this type of epilepsy, fits first affect only one side of your brain. However, these may then spread to larger areas on both sides of your brain.
Lazure may be used on its own or with other antiepileptic medicines.

Caution & Warnings:

you have thoughts of harming or killing yourself. A small number of people being treated with antiepileptic medicinal products such as lacosamide have had thoughts of harming or killing themselves. If you have any of these thoughts at any time, tell your doctor straight away.
you have a heart problem that affects the beat of your heart and you often have a particulary slow, fast or irregular heart beat (such as AV block, atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter).
