Carbamazepine Tablets IP 100 mg Uses

Carbamazepine is a medicine used primarily to control certain types of seizures (epilepsy) and to relieve nerve pain such as trigeminal neuralgia. It belongs to a class of drugs called anticonvulsants or antiepileptics. By stabilizing electrical activity in the brain, it helps reduce the frequency and severity of seizures. It is also sometimes used for bipolar disorder when other treatments are not suitable.

How Carbamazepine works

Carbamazepine works by reducing the excessive electrical activity in the brain that causes seizures. It does this by blocking sodium channels in nerve cells, which stabilizes the nerve cell membranes and prevents them from firing too rapidly. This action helps to control abnormal nerve impulses and reduces pain signals in conditions like trigeminal neuralgia.

Common side effects of Carbamazepine

Dizziness, drowsiness, or unsteadiness
Nausea, vomiting, or constipation
Blurred vision or double vision
Dry mouth
Skin rash (if occurs, consult doctor immediately)
Low sodium levels in blood (symptoms: headache, confusion, weakness)
