1. What is Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi and What is it Used For

What is Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi

Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi contains lacosamide. It belongs to a group of medications called "antiepileptic drugs", which are used to treat epilepsy.
­
This medication has been prescribed by a doctor to reduce the number of seizures.

What is Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi Used For

­
Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi is used:

  • as monotherapy and in combination with other antiepileptic medications in adults, adolescents, and children from 2 years of age for the treatment of a type of epilepsy characterized by partial seizures and secondary generalized seizures. In this type of epilepsy, seizures initially affect only one side of the brain but may then spread to other areas on both sides of the brain.
  • in combination with other antiepileptic medications in adults, adolescents, and children from 4 years of age for the treatment of primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures (grand mal seizures involving loss of consciousness) in patients with generalized idiopathic epilepsy (a type of epilepsy considered to have a genetic basis).

2. Important Information Before Using Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi

When Not to Use Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi

­
if the patient is allergic to lacosamide or any of the other ingredients of this medication (listed in section 6). In case of doubt about the existence of an allergy, consult a doctor.
­
if the patient has a certain type of heart rhythm disorder (called second or third degree atrioventricular block).
If any of the above situations apply to the patient, they should not use Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi. In case of doubt, before using this medication, consult a doctor or pharmacist.

Warnings and Precautions

Before starting treatment with Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi, the patient should consult a doctor if:
­
the patient thinks about self-harm or suicide. In some patients treated with antiepileptic medications, such as lacosamide, thoughts of self-harm or suicidal thoughts have occurred. If such thoughts occur, the patient should immediately contact their doctor.
­
the patient has a heart condition that affects the heart rhythm - often it is slowed, accelerated, or irregular (i.e., atrioventricular block, atrial fibrillation, and atrial flutter).
­
the patient has severe heart disease, such as heart failure or has had a heart attack.
­
the patient often experiences dizziness or falls. Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi may cause dizziness, which can increase the risk of accidental injury or falls.
Therefore, caution should be exercised until the body gets used to the action of the medication.
If any of the above situations occur (or there are doubts about them), before starting treatment with Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi, the patient should consult a doctor or pharmacist.
If the patient is using Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi and experiences new types of seizures or worsening of existing seizures, they should inform their doctor.
If the patient is using Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi and experiences symptoms of abnormal heart rhythm (such as slow, fast, irregular heartbeat, palpitations, shortness of breath, dizziness, fainting), they should immediately contact their doctor (see section 4).

Children

Lacosamide is not recommended for children under 2 years of age with epilepsy characterized by partial seizures, and it is not recommended for children under 4 years of age with primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures. The efficacy and safety of the medication in this age group are not yet known.

Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi and Other Medications

The patient should inform their doctor or pharmacist about all medications they are currently using or have recently used, as well as any medications they plan to use.
Particularly, the patient should inform their doctor or pharmacist about the use of any of the following medications that affect heart function, as lacosamide also affects heart function:
­
medications used for heart conditions;
­
medications that may cause prolongation of the PQ interval (visible in the electrocardiogram EKG), such as medications used to treat epilepsy or pain, e.g., carbamazepine, lamotrigine, or pregabalin;
­
medications used in the treatment of certain types of heart rhythm disorders or heart failure.
If any of the above situations occur (or there are doubts about them), before starting treatment with Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi, the patient should consult a doctor or pharmacist.
The patient should also inform their doctor or pharmacist about the use of any of the following medications, as they may decrease or increase the effectiveness of Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi:

  • medications used for fungal infections, such as fluconazole, itraconazole, or ketoconazole;
  • medications used for HIV infection, such as ritonavir;
  • medications used for bacterial infections, such as clarithromycin or rifampicin;
  • a herbal remedy used for mild anxiety and depression - St. John's Wort. If any of the above situations occur (or there are doubts about them), before starting treatment with Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi, the patient should consult a doctor or pharmacist.

Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi with Alcohol

For safety reasons, the patient should not drink alcohol while using Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding

Women of childbearing age should discuss the use of contraception with their doctor.
If the patient is pregnant or breastfeeding, thinks they may be pregnant, or plans to have a child, they should consult their doctor or pharmacist before using this medication.
Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, as its effect on the course of pregnancy and the unborn child or newborn is not known.
It is also not known whether Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi passes into human milk. The patient should urgently consult their doctor if they become pregnant or plan to become pregnant. The doctor will help decide whether Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi can be used.
The patient should not stop treatment without consulting their doctor, as this may increase the frequency of seizures. The severity of the mother's symptoms may also harm the child.

Driving and Operating Machines

The patient should not drive a car, ride a bike, or use tools or operate machines until they are sure how the medication affects them. This is because Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi may cause dizziness or blurred vision.

Lacosamide Fresenius Kabi Contains Sodium

The medication contains 59.8 mg of sodium (the main component of table salt) in each vial, which corresponds to 3% of the recommended maximum daily sodium intake for an adult.
