I started oxcarbazepine 300 mg single dose orally for seven days. After one
week, he came to me and complaints that convulsion occured one time only
but experienced no side effects of drug. Then I advised to take oxcarbazepine
300 mg bid & told him to come after one months. There was no history of
convulsion after one month. At the time of third visit, I advised him to take
medications withe 600 mg daily for 3 years. After 2 two years he came to me
& was happy to say that he had no convulsion till now.
In conclusion it is observed that oxcarbazine is also effective in Generelized
