Lamotrigine serum concentrations throughout the menstrual cycle - A study of 2 cases
(2006) In Clinical Neuropharmacology 29(3). p.160-162- Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To measure the serum concentrations of lamotrigine throughout a complete menstrual cycle. METHODS: Serum concentrations of lamotrigine, estradiol, and progestogen throughout a menstrual cycle were measured in 2 young women not using hormonal contraception. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: The physiological hormonal fluctuations during an ovulatory cycle were not associated with clinically relevant changes in lamotrigine serum concentrations.
