Carbamazepine
I keep getting double vision, loss of balance, dizziness and occasional vomiting from taking carbamazepine. I'm taking 300mg twice a day wich has been reduced from 400mg twice a day because I was having such bad problems with it. Does anyone else have these problems and could anyone suggest anything to stop these adverse effects of the medication??
