Trileptal is an anti-seizure drug whose generic version is Oxcarbazepine. Trileptal is classed as an anticonvulsant and mood-stabalizer. It is generally used to treat patients who have been diagnosed with epilepsy. Sometimes Trileptal is also used by people who have bi-polar disorder. Oxcarbazepine is marketed by Novartis as Trileptal.

Trileptal was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the US market in 2000; however, by April 2005, the manufacturers were required by the FDA to add warning labels to Trileptal informing patients about the heightened risk of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN). Although these two side effects are the target of the bulk of Trileptal litigation, there are a number of other side effects associated with this drug as well. These side effects include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Tendency to eat Salty Foods

  • Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS)

  • Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN)

  • Multi-organ Sensitivity

  • Headache

  • Rash

  • Diarrhea

  • Constipation

  • Increased Sensitivity to sunlight

  • Sunburn

  • Mental Sluggishness

Stevens-Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis are both potentially fatal skin conditions in which skin layers separate from one another and cause serious rashes all over the body. Furthermore, these conditions can cause blindness and severe difficulty with breathing. For more information about these conditions, please click on the highlighted links.
