Additionally, it is utilized to alleviate neuropathic pain associated with trigeminal neuralgia and to manage acute manic and mixed episodes in bipolar disorder. The medication is administered orally, with dosage individualized based on clinical response and patient tolerance.
Common adverse effects include dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, and ataxia, while serious but rare reactions may involve agranulocytosis, aplastic anemia, and Stevens-Johnson syndrome, necessitating regular hematological monitoring during therapy.
