Carbalept ER is specially formulated to release the active ingredient gradually. Carbamazepine, the active ingredient, can affect the body in several different ways. It is an anti-convulsant medicine (prevents fits), it can also modify some types of pain and can control mood disorders. Carbalept ER is used • To treat certain types of seizures (epilepsy). • To treat certain psychiatric conditions (such as a disorder known as mania episodes of bipolar mood disorders and a certain type of depression). It must not be used for common aches or pains. Epilepsy is a disorder characterized by two or more seizures (fits). Seizures occur when messages from the brain to the muscles are not properly passed on by the nerve pathways in the body. • Carbalept ER helps to control the passing-on of these messages. • Carbalept ER also regulates nerve functions for the other diseases mentioned above.
