Trileptal is primarily used as an antiepileptic to treat certain nervous system disorders that affect electrical activity in the brain. It is often prescribed to control partial seizures, either as a single form of treatment or as part of a combined treatment with other medications that balance nerve activity. In addition to controlling seizures, it aims to reduce their severity and frequency, which helps patients improve their quality of daily life. Doctors may prescribe
Trileptal in some cases to help treat mood disorders such as bipolar disorder, but this use is often at the doctor's discretion and under certain conditions.
