effects and if they bother you or they do not
go away.
Some other medicines can also cause low sodium in your blood. Be sure
to tell your healthcare provider
about all the other medicines that you are taking.
Your healthcare provider may do blood tests to check your sodium
levels during your treatment with
oxcarbazepine tablets.
2. Oxcarbazepine tablets may also cause allergic reactions or serious
problems which may affect organs and
other parts of your body like the liver or blood cells. You may or may
not have a rash with these types of
