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.
