lamotrigine
Treatment for Visual Snow Syndrome
Lamotrigine is an anticonvulsant and mood stabilizer that primarily works by blocking voltage-dependent sodium channels, which reduces glutamate release and stabilizes neuronal membranes. In Visual Snow Syndrome, it may help modulate cortical hyperexcitability and neural network dysfunction, potentially alleviating visual disturbances by normalizing aberrant neural signaling in visual processing regions.

## I tried Lamotrigine and its like a sugar pill I got up to around 75 mg of lamotrigine, but it always caused itchy skin rashes with each increase in dose, so I couldn’t go any higher. I know that’s a low dose, but I didn’t find any benefit for my V...View more

Did it get better before lamictal and xanax?... These drugs are known to cause temporary relief so not sure if it is actual recovery, rather than supression.
