Lamotrigine
An anticonvulsant and mood stabilizer used to treat epilepsy and bipolar disorder, and studied for potential benefits in Alzheimer's disease. It works by blocking voltage-gated sodium channels and reducing the release of excitatory neurotransmitters.

Valproic acid doubles lamotrigine plasma concentrations by inhibiting its glucuronidation; the combination is associated with Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis.
Sertraline may increase lamotrigine plasma concentrations by inhibiting its glucuronidation, potentially causing lamotrigine toxicity.
Repeated acetaminophen use may modestly lower lamotrigine plasma levels through induction of UGT glucuronidation pathways, though the clinical impact is generally small.
Carbamazepine reduces lamotrigine plasma concentrations by approximately 50% through enzyme induction, requiring lamotrigine dose adjustment.
