1.  Primary:   Mean Change From Baseline in the Convenience Subscale Score (CSS) Derived From the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM v 1.4) Using Items 9 (Ease of Use), 10 (Ease of Planning to Use), and 11 (Convenience) at Week 3.   [ Baseline, End of Study (Week 3) or Early Withdrawal ]

Measure Type Primary
Measure Title Mean Change From Baseline in the Convenience Subscale Score (CSS) Derived From the Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire for Medication (TSQM v 1.4) Using Items 9 (Ease of Use), 10 (Ease of Planning to Use), and 11 (Convenience) at Week 3.
Measure Description The CSS is the sum of items 9 (values: 1=Extremely difficult - 7=Extremely easy), 10 (same set of values as for 9), and 11 (1=Extremely inconvenient - 7=Extremely convenient). The sum has 3 subtracted from it, is divided by 18, and then multiplied by 100; the range is 0-100. Change from baseline=end of study CSS minus baseline score.

Population Description
Explanation of how the number of participants for analysis was determined. Includes whether analysis was per protocol, intention to treat, or another method. Also provides relevant details such as imputation technique, as appropriate.
Intent to Treat (ITT). Ninety-eight participants were enrolled in the study, but one withdrew prior to receiving lamotrigine ODT treatment. All efficacy and safety analyses are based on the Intent to Treat population, which includes the 97 patients who received at least one dose of ODT treatment.
