View company portfolio →What EPICAR DS tabs (Carbamazepine) is used for
Carbamazepine is an antiseizure (anticonvulsant) medicine. It is mainly used for epilepsy, and also for a type of facial nerve pain and for bipolar disorder. It works by calming the abnormal electrical signals in the brain and changing how nerves pass on pain signals. It is a prescription medicine. It comes as tablets (some are chewable and some are slow-release), a liquid, slow-release capsules and suppositories. It controls the condition but does not cure it, so it is usually taken long term.
- Epilepsy: to help prevent certain types of seizures (fits)
- Trigeminal neuralgia, a condition that causes sharp pain on one side of the face
- Bipolar disorder (manic or mixed episodes), usually when other medicines have not worked
