Precautions and Warnings

Pregnancy

Pregnancy

Tell your doctor if you are pregnant or planning a pregnancy. Seizure medicines need careful handling in pregnancy, so do not stop treatment on your own; your doctor will help you weigh the benefits and risks.

Breast Feeding

Breast Feeding

This medicine may pass into breast milk. Talk to your doctor before breastfeeding while on this treatment.

Driving

Driving

This medicine can cause dizziness, sleepiness, and blurred or double vision. Do not drive or use machinery until you know how it affects you.

Alcohol

Alcohol

Alcohol can add to the dizziness and sleepiness. It is best to avoid alcohol during treatment.

Directions for Use

This injection is given by a doctor or nurse in a hospital or clinic, usually into a vein. Do not self-inject. Sit or lie down during and shortly after it is given, as it can make you feel dizzy.

Storage and disposal

Store at room temperature, away from direct heat and light. The liquid should be clear and colourless before use. As it is given in a hospital or clinic, storage and disposal are handled by trained staff. Keep out of the reach of children.

Quick Tips

  • Do not stop this medicine suddenly, as it can bring seizures back.
  • It can make you dizzy or sleepy, so avoid driving until you know how it affects you.
  • Tell your doctor about any heart rhythm problem.
  • Report any sudden change in mood or unusual thoughts to your doctor.
  • Get enough sleep and take your treatment on time.

Dosage

Overdose

Too much of this medicine can cause dizziness, confusion, and changes in the heartbeat. If you think you have taken too much of this medicine, contact your doctor immediately or visit the nearest hospital.

Missed a Dose

Missing doses of seizure medicine can trigger a seizure, so it is important not to skip them. If you missed any dose of medicine, take it as soon as you remember. If it's time for your next dose, then skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dose schedule. Do not take a double dose of medicine to compensate for the missed one.

How does this medicine work?

Seizures happen when there is a sudden burst of disorganised electrical activity in the brain. Lacoxa injection calms this overactive electrical signalling in the nerve cells. By steadying the electrical activity, it lowers how often seizures happen and how severe they are.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can change the way Lacoxa injection works, and it can change the way other medicines work. Tell your doctor about all the medicines, supplements, and herbal products you are taking or have recently taken. In particular, mention if you are taking other seizure medicines, heart rhythm medicines such as beta blockers or calcium channel blockers, or medicines that make you feel sleepy.
