Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: A high inter-individual variability in the pharmacokinetics of lamotrigine has been observed. Lamotrigine is primarily metabolized by UGT1A4 and UGT2B7, both of which show genetic polymorphisms. Both genetic and non-genetic factors may influence the pharmacokinetics of lamotrigine. The aim of this study was to determine the pharmacokinetic parameters of lamotrigine and to investigate...
