Thanks for your replys to the previous messages
I have just began taking carbamazepine and on the box the brand is not tegretol, its made from ALPHARMA.
I was wondering if it really makes much difference, i.e is the tegretol brand better for less side-effects and more so the tegretol xr version, rather than this one i have? Could the overall effectiveness be better with tegretol to?
Also ive been taking Pro-Banthine (Propantheline bromide) for the sweating I have and have noticed since I started taking the carbamazepine it does not seem effective anymore...could this be the carbamazepine stopping it working? Gp said it shouldnt be a problem.
And the final question lol...if the carbamazepine was effecting the pro banthine am i right in thinking trileptal would not pose this problem with the 2 taken together?
Many thanks if your able to anwswer these questions for me
