MODERN VIEW ON CARBAMAZEPINE PROLONGED DOSAGE FORMS USAGE IN PATIENTS WITH EPILEPSY (LITERATURE REVIEW)
Abstract
Data on carbamazepine prolonged dosage forms use for treatment of epilepsy are presented in current review. Expediency of carbamazepine prolonged forms use in patients with different epilepsy forms and types of seizures is demonstrated. Besides its efficacy for stopping epileptic seizures prolonged dosage form of carbamazepine has stable plasma concentration, that is associated with better tolerability profile.
