Description and Uses

Carbamazepine is a synthetic iminostilbene derivative structurally similar to imipramine, a tricyclic antidepressant. While unrelated structurally, carbamazepine shares a similar therapeutic action with phenytoin. Carbamazepine was first discovered in 1953 by Swiss chemist Walter Schindler. Throughout the 1960s, antimuscarinic was used and marketed for trigeminal neuralgia and as an anticonvulsant. By the 1970s, it was being used as a mood stabilizer for patients with bipolar disorder.

Used in treatment of pain associated with trigeminal neuralgia. Anticonvulsant
