Abstract EN
Lamotrigine is a new generation antiepileptic which blocks sodium channels and can cause significant toxicity in overdose.
A case of a three-year-old child who suffered a seizure and required endotracheal intubation after accidental lamotrigine ingestion is presented.
The lamotrigine concentration measured 23.2 mcg/mL which is the highest reported after accidental pediatric exposure.
A review of the literature regarding pediatric lamotrigine poisoning is also included.
