Lamictal contains the active ingredient Lamotigrine, it's an anticonvulsant used to treat BiPolar disorder and seizures.

Acid reflux is not listed as a commonly known side effect, however, some medications can make it worse or irritate it.

Have you tried speaking to your doctor about this?

Not reflux but when I swallow it feels like my esophagus has narrowed, no trouble eating or drinking but swallowing is not normal.
