A member asked:
Using tegretol what do i need to watch for regarding lft's and bone health. is this med not used much anymore because of its liver toxicity?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: Tegretol still has great value for a number of conditions. Liver toxicity is not very common but anyone who takes it must be screened periodically as we do with numerous other meds.
