Will lamictal deplete a person of potassium?

(I am not a doctor)  It's an interesting question.  I have been taking Lamictal for 10 years due to seizures and a few years ago a blood test showed a low potassium level.  They put me on Potassium Chloride for a bit and things seemed to level off after a few months.  I'm not an expert on potassium levels or why they rise or fall, but Lamictal may have altered mine for a time.  Best Wishes.
