• Stabilises Overactive Nerve Impulses: Carbamazepine works to stabilise the overactive nerve impulses in your brain that trigger seizures and pain signals.

• Blocks Sodium Channels: By blocking sodium channels, carbamazepine decreases the excitability of neurons, which prevents the abnormal spread of electrical activity in the brain.

• Restores Normal Balance of Nerve Activity: Carbamazepine helps to restore the normal balance of nerve activity in your brain, managing seizures and alleviating nerve pain effectively.
