EPILEPSY MEDICINE RECALL

After reading this information from the Epilepsy Foundation, I wanted to spread the word.  If you take Lamotrigine Orally Disintegrating Tablet (ODT) 200 mg produced by Impax Laboratories. , the FDA issued a drug warning!!  The label on the packaging labeled incorrect. The lot that is affected, #502240, was distributed between June 13, 2016, and August 10, 2016.  Ask your pharmacist about the warning and check the lot number.

Check http://www.fda.gov/Safety/Recalls/ucm518477.htm for information about the Impax Laboratories.

Thank you again Epilepsy Foundation.  http://www.epilepsy.com/article/2016/8/fda-issues-safety-alert-improperly-labeled-lamotrigine

If you know anyone that takes this medication, please give them this information.
