ChatGPT Medication Advice
A lawsuit filed by the family of former Amazon engineer Bowen Wan, 31, alleges that ChatGPT gave her a plan to taper off lamotrigine, an epilepsy medication she was taking at a dose of 400 milligrams a day, and stop taking it entirely within 25 days. It also encouraged her not to tell her doctor. After reducing her dose, Wan experienced confusion, memory lapses and severe headaches. Her family alleges that the chatbot reassured her that these symptoms were normal. She died in February 2026, and the medical examiner classified her death as sudden unexpected death related to epilepsy. OpenAI called the incident tragic and said Wan had used a version of the product that was later discontinued. Doctors and specialists warned that stopping epilepsy medication without medical supervision can lead to life-threatening seizures.
