Lacosam is used together with other medicines to help control partial seizures (convulsions) in the treatment of epilepsy. It acts on the central nervous system (CNS) to reduce the number and severity of seizures. However, Lacosam cannot cure epilepsy and will only work to control seizures for as long as you continue to take it. Lacosam is available only with your doctor's prescription.
