Uses

Epilepsy Carbamazepine is indicated for use as an anticonvulsant drug.
Evidence supporting efficacy of carbamazepine as an anticonvulsant was derived from active drug-controlled studies that enrolled patients with the following seizure types: 1.
Partial seizures with complex symptomatology (psychomotor, temporal lobe).
Patients with these seizures appear to show greater improvement than those with other types.
Generalized tonic-clonic seizures (grand mal).

How to take

() Carbamazepine suspension in combination with liquid chlorpromazine or thioridazine results in precipitate formation, and, in the case of chlorpromazine, there has been a report of patient passing an orange rubbery precipitate in the stool following coadministration of the two drugs (see , Drug Interactions).
Because the extent to which this occurs with other liquid medications is not known, Carbamazepine suspension should not be administered simultaneously with other liquid medications or diluents.
Monitoring of blood levels has increased the efficacy and safety of anticonvulsants (see , Laboratory Tests).
Dosage should be adjusted to the needs of the individual patient.
A low initial daily dosage with a gradual increase is advised.
