In such patients, obtaining an ECG before beginning MOTPOLY XR, and after MOTPOLY XR is titrated to steady-state, is recommended. 7.3 CNS Depressants Concomitant administration of lacosamide and alcohol or other CNS depressant drugs has not been evaluated in clinical studies. Because of the potential of MOTPOLY XR to cause CNS depression, as well as other cognitive and/or neuropsychiatric adverse reactions, MOTPOLY XR should be used with extreme caution if used in combination with alcohol and other CNS depre
