It is important that you take your Lacosamide medicine regularly and completely as your physician recommends because missing doses can cause seizures. Do not switch the brand of Lacosamide medicine you are taking, and check to see that you have a sufficient quantity of the medication on hand. The following are some suggestions for maintaining a healthy lifestyle: Perform yoga daily. Get a good night's sleep. Limit your time spent on a computer or smartphone. Be sure to take your medicine at the prescribed times. Lacosamide may cause dizziness and drowsiness. Do not operate a motor vehicle or engage in any activity requiring mental focus until you have determined how Lacosamide will affect you. While using Lacosamide, your doctor may recommend routine blood tests to check your blood cell count. If you experience sudden mood swings or have suicidal thoughts, consult your doctor. You should consult your doctor if your heartbeat is affected by Lacosamide and you have a heart problem. Do not suddenly stop taking the Lacosamide medicine without consulting your doctor, because this may increase the frequency of your seizures.
