No, lamotrigine is not an SSRI (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor). It is an anticonvulsant medication primarily used to treat epilepsy and Bipolar disorder. SSRIs, such as fluoxetine or sertraline, are specifically designed to treat depression and anxiety by increasing serotonin levels in the brain. Lamotrigine works differently by stabilizing mood and reducing the frequency of seizures.
Lamictal (lamotrigine) is not an SSRI. It is an anti-convulsant.
