Hi, I am purwono from indonesia. I hope i can be one of you in this forum.
I have a son starting to have a epilipsy at 12 yr old. He had generalized seizures at waking up only. It never happened during his activity or his being awake. We took him to a doctor and he got single treatment of tegretol cr containing carbanazepine 200 gr,one tablet daily and after several days the siezure stopped.
After 3 years of not having seizure we decided to reduce the doses. Now he has been taking l00 mg every other day for 1 year. so far so good. Can anyone of you answer my question whether the treatment can be stopped completely now ? because i am worried of the effect of the long term treatment of carbamazepine. Thanks to all of you
