Finlepsin Retard is a prescription medicine that should be taken exactly as you are prescribed. According to the information contained in the medicinal product documents, in the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia in multiple sclerosis, the average daily dose is 1 to 2 tablets taken twice a day, i.e. 400 to 800 mg of carbamazepine.
If you feel that the recommended dose is not working well, you should report this fact to your doctor. He or she will most likely recommend a modification of the dosage or a change of the drug used to another, perhaps more effective in your case. Each body reacts differently to treatment, so it is difficult to determine what dose would be able to withstand pain. Your doctor, based on full information about your clinical condition, the course of your disease and other medications used, will be able to select the appropriate dosage. It should be borne in mind that higher doses may result in a higher risk of or worsening of existing side effects .
If you are not currently able to consult your doctor, you can use the teleconsultation here:
