\u00a0\u00a0Tegretol medication is an antiepileptic drug. It has an anti-manic, neurochemical (normalizing mood) effect. The active substance activates the inhibitory GABAergic system in the brain. It also blocks potential-dependent Na-channels of the membranes of nerve cells, which leads to stabilization of their function, reduces the activity of neurotransmitter acids (aspartate, glutamate), interacts with brain adenosine receptors. Tegretol pill increases seizure threshold, corrects epileptic personality changes.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The drug blocks sodium channels, thus stopping the emergence of potentials associated with sodium ions in neurons after depolarization. Tegretol eliminates anxiety and signs of depression, reduces irritability, stops aggression during epilepsy (due to psychotropic effects). With idiopathic neuralgia, neuralgia of the secondary nature of the trigeminal nerve while taking the drug, prevention of paroxysmal pain attacks is observed.<\/p>\n
Thus, this medicine is used to treat:<\/b>
\n\u2022epilepsy;
\n\u2022complex and simple partial seizures (with\/without loss of consciousness, with\/without signs \u2022of secondary generalization);
\n\u2022mixed forms of convulsive seizures;
\n\u2022degenerative tonic-clonic seizures;
\n\u2022acute mania;
\n\u2022alcohol dependence syndrome;
\n\u2022bipolar affective disorders (as maintenance therapy) to reduce the severity of clinical \u2022manifestations during exacerbations, as well as to prevent exacerbations;
\n\u2022idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia, trigeminal neuralgia in multiple sclerosis;
\n\u2022idiopathic neuralgia of the glossopharyngeal nerve.
\nTegretol is not used if the patient has:
\n\u2022component intolerance;
\n\u2022allergic reactions to tricyclic antidepressants in the past;
\n\u2022AV blockade;
\n\u2022oppression of bone marrow function;
\n\u2022hepatic porphyria (acute intermittent, mixed, late porphyria of the skin), including in the past.
\nThus, the drug has a strong effect on the nervous system and causes a significant change in its functioning. The erroneous prescription of this medicine is unacceptable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
