Can a 5 year old be placed on keppra and carbamazopine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The posted medications are anti-epileptic drugs, and both have potential adverse effects, especially carbamazepine, which can cause severe bone marrow issues. Not clear what precisely is occurring. Here, we can answer medical questions, but a more thorough evaluation can be done via a virtual consult (www.connect@healthtap.com)
