Laogine 50mg Tablet belongs to a group of anticonvulsants or anti-epileptics used to treat epilepsy/seizures/fits. Additionally, Laogine 50mg Tablet also treats bipolar disorder. Epilepsy is a sudden rush of electricity in the brain. In epilepsy, the brain's electrical rhythms become imbalanced, resulting in recurrent seizures, sometimes leading to an unconscious state. Bipolar disorder is a severe brain disorder in which a person experiences extreme mood swings (variance in thinking) and frequent mood and behavioural changes.
Laogine 50mg Tablet contains 'Lamotrigine' that reduces the electrical impulses and subsequent firing of the nerve impulses that cause fits. Thus, Laogine 50mg Tablet decreases the excessive and abnormal nerve activity in the brain, thereby controlling seizures.

Laogine 50mg Tablet contains Lamotrigine, which reduces the electrical impulses and subsequent firing of the nerve impulses that cause fits. Laogine 50mg Tablet decreases the excessive and abnormal nerve activity in the brain, thereby helping in controlling seizures. It also suppresses the release of excitatory amino acid glutamate (a chemical messenger that acts as a nerve-exciting agent) in the brain, thereby preventing episodes of fits by stabilizing nerve cell's electrical activity in the brain.

Epilepsy: It is a brain-related problem in which there is a sudden rush of electricity in the brain. This sudden, uncontrolled disturbance in nerve cell's electrical activity in the brain results in recurrent seizures (fits), sometimes leading to the unconscious state. In patients with seizures, the typical brain electrical pattern is disrupted by sudden bursts of electrical impulses that affect an individual's consciousness, movements, or sensations. Seizures are of two types: generalized and partial seizures. Generalized seizures affect the entire brain, whereas partial seizures affect only a part of the brain. Seizures can cause uncontrollable muscle twitches and spasms. Stronger seizures may cause people to become confused or unconscious. Possible causes include high fever, trauma, genetic disorder, brain injury, or stroke.
Bipolar disorder: Bipolar disorder, also known as manic depression or bipolar disease, is a mental health disorder associated with episodes of mood swings ranging from manic highs to depressive lows.
