Whats That
Lacopsy 200mg Injection belongs to the class of anticonvulsants used to treat partial onset seizures (seizures that affect only one portion of the brain) in adults and children one month or older who cannot take oral treatments. Lacopsy 200mg Injection is also used in conjunction with other medications to manage primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures (previously known as a grand mal seizure, a seizure affecting the entire body) in adults and children four years of age and older who are unable to take oral medications. Focal or partial-onset seizures are characterized by abnormal electrical activity in only one brain hemisphere.
Lacopsy 200mg Injection contains lacosamide, which treats seizures by decreasing disorganized electrical activity in the brain.
Lacopsy 200mg Injection is administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer.

Lacopsy 200mg Injection is an antiepileptic drug, also called anticonvulsants. It treats focal seizures in adults and children above one month of age. Seizures occur due to abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Lacopsy 200mg Injection can inactivate the sodium channels across the neuron membranes. This inactivation decreases neuron signals, thereby decreasing the brain's electrical disturbance or abnormal activity. It can also be used with other medications to manage primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures (Previously known as a grand mal seizure, a seizure affecting the entire body) in adults and children above 4 years of age who cannot take oral medications.

Drug-disease interactions: Lacopsy 200mg Injection should be used with caution in patients with depression, renal or hepatic impairment and heart conditions.
Focal or partial-onset seizures are characterized by abnormal electrical activity in only one brain hemisphere. Common symptoms of focal seizures are involuntary muscle contractions, followed by relaxation on one side of the body, uncontrolled head or eye movements, rapid heart rate, and a tingling sensation on the skin. The symptoms vary in each patient depending on the part of the brain affected.
