Tegretol tablets are used to control epileptic seizures as part of the treatment of epilepsy disorders, relieve the pain of trigeminal neuralgia (chronic facial pain), and treat some mood disorders such as bipolar disorder.
Tegretol can also sometimes be used to manage some cases of nerve pain resulting from other diseases such as diabetes. It is always preferable to take Tegretol under the supervision of a specialist doctor, as its effect varies from one person to another and may require adjusting the doses to obtain the best results without exacerbating the side effects.
