Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 43 years old, male. Then I occasionally experience recurrent episodes of epilepsy. My family took me to the hospital for treatment and got some medication to take home. I would like to ask if the oral carbamazepine treatment for epilepsy has side effects?Doctor's answer:
First, epilepsy is a disease of the nervous system, which can cause symptoms such as convulsions, foaming at the mouth, eye rolling, and so on. Therefore, in the treatment of epilepsy, it is generally necessary to maintain a stable emotional state in daily life and avoid any stimuli. At the same time, some medications can be used for treatment, such as carbamazepine. Carbamazepine, for example, has toxic side effects, but long-term use may require monitoring of renal and liver function.
