Oxytol Side Effects

iam using oxytol 300 mg daily 2 times for 3 years course. Is that convulstions will stops or not ? Is convulstions will return after completion of course ? What side effects will be ? ## Hello, Rana! How are you? Oxetol contains the active ingredient Oxcarbazepine, which is used to prevent seizures. Typical side effects may include nausea, dizziness, weight changes, drowsiness, blurred vision and fatigue. There is no way of knowing whether or not your seizures will return, you'll really just have to take the medication, as prescribed and then see what happens. Some people don't experience more seizures, but some people require such a medication for the rest of their lives. Are there any other questions or concerns?
