Hi,

Zeptol is composed of 'Carbamazepine'. It is an anticonvulsant medication that is used to control seizures and trigeminal neuralgia.

It is also used to treat a condition characterized by episodes of depression and abnormally elevated behaviour.

Common side effects include nausea and drowsiness. Serious side effects may include skin rashes, decreased bone marrow function, suicidal thoughts, or confusion.

It is important to get a liver function test and check for WBC counts regularly while on this medication.

Duration and dosage of its intake depend on the underlying cause for which it is administered. Kindly do the necessary follow-up as advised by your doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ashakiran S, General & Family Physician
