There are numerous reasons not to drink alcohol while taking lamotragine. Lamotragine is generally used as a mood stabilizer or anticonvulsant. Persons with either bipolar or seizure disorder are not advised to drink alcohol because it can aggravate symptoms and very possibly contribute to a seizure or manic or depressive episode. Alcohol can interfere with the functioning of lamotragine since they both affect the central nervous system.

That said, many persons taking this medication drink alcohol without adverse effects. Consuming alcohol in large quantities is much riskier than moderate drinking (I mean one or two drinks). If you are going to drink recognize that it's generally regarded as unsafe by health care professionals and most people taking this medication probably don't drink. Start slow and in safe environments such as your home, you'll be able to see how alcohol affects you personally since this is very different for different persons.

Short answer - maybe nothing but possibly a serious adverse reaction.

What would happen if you drank 99 bottles of beer?

If you drank ninety-nine bottle of beer in a relatively short amount of time, you would probably die of alcohol poisoning. However, if this amount of beer was drunk over a long period of time, it would not result in death. Nevertheless, drinking beer is generally not a recommended course of action, because alcohol is capable of impairing judgement, as well as causing irrevocable liver damage. Furthermore, drinking beer during pregnancy may result in FAS (Fetal Alcohol Syndrome). In conclusion, drinking ninety-nine bottles of beer is not a good idea.
