Patient's question:
My 11-year-old daughter has epilepsy and is currently taking Tegretol (carbamazepine) tablets, 15050 tablets, two tablets per day. Currently, 150 tablets are not available, only 30050 tablets. Can it be adjusted to take 300 tablets, one tablet per day, or divide one tablet into two doses per day? Please let me know. Thank you for your reply.Doctor's answer:
Okay, here is the translation, keeping the line breaks as they are:Okay, the key is that the drug ingredients are the same. If the dosage form differs, the dosage can be adjusted; you can take one pill per day, or half a pill at a time, twice a day. It is crucial to ensure the ingredients are the same. If the ingredients change, or the dosage form changes, or the administration method changes, a doctor needs to adjust the medication.
