This medication is an anticonvulsant contains oxcarbazepine, prescribed for partial seizure disorders in epileptic children and adults, either alone or with other medication.
London, ( http://onlinepillmart.com/ ) : Why Trileptal is prescribed :This medication is an anticonvulsant contains oxcarbazepine, prescribed for partial seizure disorders in epileptic children and adults, either alone or with other medication. It reduces anxiety and mood disorders. It also controls benign motor tics (sudden movements in body lasting for a short period of time). It slows down the abnormal nerve impulses in the brain.
Mechanism of action: The pharmacological activity of Trileptal (oxcarbazepine) is primarily exerted through the 10-monohydroxy metabolite (MHD) of oxcarbazepine? The precise mechanism by which oxcarbazepine and MHD exert their antiseizure effect is unknown; however in vitro electrophysiological studies indicate that they produce blockade of voltage-sensitive sodium channels, resulting in the stabilization of hyperexcited neural membranes, inhibition of repetitive neuronal firing, and dimunition of propagation of synaptic impulses. These actions are thought to be important in the prevention of seizure spread in the intact brain. In addition, increased potassium conduction and modulation of high-voltage activated calcium channels may contribute to the anticonvulsive effects of the drug. No significant interactions of oxcarbazepine or MHD with brain neurotransmitter or modulator receptor sites have been demonstrated.
When it is to be taken: Adult: Initial- 600 mg/day in 2 divided doses; increase the dose gradually depending on response. Maintenance: 600-1,200 mg/day, up to 2.4 g/day in adjunct therapy or refractory patients switched from other anticonvulsants.
How it should be taken: It comes as a tablet, and a suspension is administered through mouth. It is usually taken two times per day with or without food.
Special Instruction:
Cross-sensitivity to carbamazepine may occur.
Avoid abrupt withdrawal.
Caution needed for patients with history of liver or kidney disease, patients at risk of hyponatraemia (Decreased sodium level in the blood), pregnancy.
It may make you drowsy or dizzy, or may cause vision changes.
Do not drive a car or operate machinery while taking this medication.
Side Effects :
Most Common- Dizziness, drowsiness, double vision, running nose, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, ataxia, abnormal vision, sore throat, abdominal pain, tremor, indigestion, abnormal gait.
Body as a Whole- Weakness, swelling in the legs, weight increase.
Heart- Low blood pressure
Gastrointestinal- Diarrhea, constipation, inflammation of stomach.
?Metabolic- Decreased sodium level in blood and thyroid.
Musculoskeletal- Muscle weakness and sprain.
Central Nervous System- Headache, involuntary eye movement, gait, sleeplessness, tremor, nervousness, agitation, poor co-ordination, EEG abnormal, speech disorder, confusion, injury to the brain, tremor, abnormal thinking.
Respiratory- Inflammation of nose.
Skin- Pimple
Potentially Fatal- Stevens-Johnson syndrome (rashes in skin and mucous membrane), toxic epidermal cell death, anaphylaxis (allergic reaction) and rapid swelling of skin.
Other Precautions:
Avoid alcohol consumption while taking this medication.
Storage Conditions: Store it at room temperature (25°C) and in an airtight container. Keep away from children.
