What Carbamazepine is

If you have seizures, you may shake, stare, or lose awareness. Nerve pain can feel like sharp shocks along the face or other nerves. In bipolar disorder, your mood can swing from high to very low. Carbamazepine is a prescription medicine used to help these conditions. It belongs to a class of drugs called anticonvulsants and mood stabilizers. It helps calm overactive nerve signals in the brain.

What it is used for

It is used to treat certain seizures. Seizures may start in one area of your brain and then spread. Carbamazepine can help control these attacks and reduce how often they occur.

It can help nerve pain, especially trigeminal neuralgia, which causes sudden, sharp facial pain. It may also ease other nerve-related pains when other medicines have not helped.

In bipolar disorder, it may help stabilize mood during episodes of mania or mixed symptoms. Your doctor will decide if this medicine is right for you based on your symptoms and medical history.

Contraindications and precautions

Absolute contraindications include an allergy to carbamazepine. Do not take it if you have had a severe reaction to this medicine before. It should also be avoided if you have certain bone marrow problems or specific blood disorders.

Precautions are important. The medicine can affect blood cell counts and liver function, so your doctor may order regular blood tests and liver tests while you take it. Tell your doctor right away if you notice fever, sore throat, easy bruising, or unusual bleeding. Dehydration, poor nutrition, or kidney problems can raise risks, so share these details with your clinician.

There are special concerns for pregnancy, ethnic risk of skin reactions, and driving safety. It can harm a developing baby, so you should discuss benefits and risks with your provider. Some people from certain ethnic backgrounds have a higher chance of a serious skin rash, so stop the medicine and seek care if you develop a widespread or blistering rash. Driving or operating heavy machinery may be harder at first because the medicine can cause drowsiness or dizziness.

Side effects by frequency

Very common: you may feel sleepy, dizzy, or unsteady. You might also have blurred vision or feel tired during the day.

Common: nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, dry mouth, constipation, or headache. You may notice changes in coordination or mood as the body adjusts.

Uncommon or rare: skin rash, itching, or swelling; dizziness with passing out; unusual bruising or bleeding; weakness, muscle pain, or yellowing of the skin or eyes. Rare but serious issues include very low white blood cells, severe liver problems, or signs of an allergic reaction. If you see severe rash, fever, trouble breathing, or swelling of the face or lips, seek urgent care.

Interactions with other substances

Carbamazepine can change how other medicines work. Do not start or stop medicines without talking to your clinician, especially with MAO inhibitors, which should not be used together with carbamazepine or used only after a careful plan. The drug can also reduce the effect of some medicines by speeding up their breakdown in your body.

Birth control pills and some other hormonal therapies may become less effective. If you rely on hormones for contraception, discuss additional options with your doctor. It can also lower the effectiveness of warfarin and some HIV or antibiotic therapies, so your doctor may adjust doses or choose alternatives.

Alcohol and other sedatives can increase sleepiness or dizziness when you take carbamazepine. Grapefruit juice may raise its levels in your blood and raise side effects. St. John's wort and similar herbal supplements can lower carbamazepine levels and reduce its effect. Always tell your doctor about all medicines, vitamins, and herbal products you use.
