Its mechanism involves reducing heightened, erratic neuronal activity within the brain, thus controlling seizures. This medication can be administered with or without food, ideally at the same time daily. Missed doses should be taken immediately upon recollection, as this is critical to seizure control; maintaining a backup supply is advised. Complete the prescribed course, even with symptom improvement; discontinuation should only occur under physician supervision to prevent seizure recurrence. Pre-existing heart conditions necessitate prior consultation with your doctor before commencing treatment. Potential side effects include headache, dizziness, dry mouth, muscle stiffness, blurred or double vision, nausea. Many of these are transient and resolve spontaneously.
