Authors: Chen C, et al. Title: The effects of lamotrigine on the pharmacokinetics of lithium. Reference: Br J Clin Pharmacol 2000;50:193-5. Purpose: To determine whether lamotrigine affects lithium pharmacokinetics. Study design: Open-label, randomized, cross-over study. Follow up: 6 days. Patients: 20 healthy adult men. Treatment: Lithium 2g every 12 hours with or without lamotrigine 100 mg once daily. Results: Lamotrigine did not cause a significant change in the pharmacokinetics of lithium. Key pharmacokinetic parameters for lithium varied by 10% or less with and without combination lamotrigine treatment.
