POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Posology
Treatment with Timonil retard should be started with a low,
individualised, initial dose
depending on the nature and severity of the disease. This is then
gradually increased until
the most effective maintenance dose is found.
The daily dose is generally given in 1 – 2 single doses.
The general daily dosage range lies between 400 -1200 mg
carbamazepine.
A total daily dose of 1600 mg should generally not be exceeded, since
increased side effects
occur at higher doses.

In some instances the required dosage can vary considerably from the
specified initial and
maintenance doses (e.g. due to acceleration of metabolism by enzyme
induction or due to
drug in
