Carbamazepine is a mood-stabilizer and anticonvulsant intended for use on patients with bipolar disorder or epilepsy; however, it has been also used as an off-label treatment for a slew of other psychological disorders including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), schizophrenia, and phantom limb syndrome.
The most serious side-effect to use of carbamazepine is the possible development of Steven Johnson’s Syndrome (SJS), which is a serious disease that damages mucous membranes and skin cells causing separation of skin layers. Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TENS) is generally considered to be a more serious version of SJS, which causes more egregious epidermal separation.
Other serious side-effects include a greater probability of developing Lupus and further aggravation of juvenile myclonic epilepsy.
Carbamazepine is also known by the following names:
- Tegretol

How the work begins
The first conversation is with the attorney, not an intake service. We look at the documents you already have, identify what is missing, and give a direct assessment of the position — including when the honest answer is that a claim is not worth bringing.
If we take the matter on, you receive a written engagement agreement setting out scope and fees before any work starts. Where a case crosses borders, we coordinate with counsel in the relevant jurisdiction rather than improvising outside our own.
