How Does Carbamazepine Work?-carbamazepine 100mg buy

In health, electrical signals fire within our brains as part of our normal cognitive function. These seizures are often the result of bursts of abnormal electrical activity occurring within the brain, that change the way the body behaves.

The change in electrical activity leads to changes in your muscles, emotions, sensations and behaviour, giving characteristic seizure activity. Some people also lose consciousness during a fit.

Carbamazepine works to stabilise the electrical activity occurring within the brain to prevent the seizures from happening.

When taken for the severe facial pain caused by trigeminal neuralgia, carbamazepine modifies the pain to make it more manageable.

Carbamazepine can also help to stabilize your mood if you have bipolar disorder, helping to minimize the extreme changes in mood and agitation you might experience. is available as a liquid for those who find it difficult to take tablets.
