Yes: Be aware that enzyme inducing anti seizure medications may reduce the effectiveness of Plan B. Speak to your prescriber to determine what effect your anti seizure medication might have and what adjustment of dose might be necessary.

Agree w Dr. Singer: Phenytoin (Dilantin), carbamazepine (Tegretol).Topamax (topiramate) & LAMICTAL (lamotrigine) can all interact with Plan B. Please consult with your pharmacist or your neurologist.
