: I am pregnant with my third child...taking tegratol and a minimal amount of phenobarb. Was in the middle of transitioning from pheno to tegratol. Am concerned about the side effects to my child. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello Diane;
I took phenobarbitol for two pregnancies with no problems. They are now a healthy 15 and 16. I was on tegretol for the last pregnancy, no health problems. She is a healthy two. I was on 1000 milligrams a day of carbamazepine (generic tegretol) per day. Good luck to you . Deb
