ZEP 200MG TABLET

Zep 200mg Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called anticonvulsants or anti-epileptics used to treat epilepsy (fits) and trigeminal neuralgia (pain in the face's nerves). Epilepsy is a neurological disorder in which there is a sudden rush of electric impulses (electric activity) in the brain.Zep 200mg Tablet contains 'Carbamazepine', which reduces the electrical impulses and subsequent firing of the nerve impulses that cause fits. Thus, it decreases the excessive and abnormal nerve activity in the brain, thereby controlling seizures. In some cases, you may experience side effects such as dizziness, tiredness, uncontrolled movements, nausea, headache, changes in liver enzymes, or low white blood cell count, and minor skin reactions. Talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.Do not take Zep 200mg Tablet if you are allergic to any of its components.
