Description
The Carbamazepine (Tegretol) test is a blood test used to measure the levels of carbamazepine, an anticonvulsant medication, in the patient’s blood. This test is crucial for monitoring treatment efficacy in patients with epilepsy, trigeminal neuralgia, and bipolar disorder. Regular testing helps ensure that the drug concentration remains within the therapeutic range, maximizing benefits while minimizing side effects. It’s particularly important for patients on long-term therapy, as carbamazepine levels can be affected by factors such as age, liver function, and interactions with other medications.
