How Does It Work?
Normally in the brain, the electrical activity is going on in a controlled manner. When there is an imbalance in this electrical activity, it becomes uncontrolled. That produces symptoms like muscle tightening, unusual head movements, blank stares, moving of eyes side to side, numbness, tingling, or hallucinations (seeing, smelling, or hearing things that are not present). Oxcarbazepine helps in controlling electrical activity in the brain and decreases the frequency of seizures or fits. It works by keeping the brain’s over-excitable nerve cells under control. This reduces the frequency of such fits....
