What Are The Side Effects Of Lamotrigine?
ok. I am 51, menopausal and taking lamotrigine. I am gaining weight. How much of this weight gain is attirbuted to menopause and how much to lamotrigine which affects hormones. Help! I am an avid runner and the weight is mounting. I am also extremely bloated each day. How do I lose the weight? I am eating well and running - just ran two half marathons in 2 weeks . Pls advise.

Hello,
It is unlikely related to Lamotrigene, other possibilities like post menopausal hormonal imbalances must be ruled out.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
