Hello, Twiggy! How are you?

No, the FDA classifies Lamotrigine as an anticonvulsant that is used to help treat or prevent seizures and for some types of mood disorders.

Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, mood swings and weight gain.

Is there anything else I can help with?
