Does Double Dosage Of Lamotrigine Cause Any Side Effects?

I am starting a new seizure medication, Lamotrigine. The instructions were difficult to understand. I am suppose to start with 50 mg per day for 2 weeks. Today is the first day I took it. I misunderstood and took 150 mg dose. Tomorrow, should I skip the med or take the 50 mg?

This dose you took is not going to intoxicate you since it is not such big. Tomorrow continue as usual.
