Oxetol XR 300 Tablet is taken orally.

Oxetol XR 300 Tablet contains oxcarbazepine (300 mg), which acts on your body as follows:

• Reduces Abnormal Electrical Activity: Oxcarbazepine works by decreasing the abnormal electrical activity in the brain that results in seizures. Normally, electrical activity in the brain is well-regulated. When this regulation is disrupted, symptoms like muscle tightening, unusual head movements, and numbness can occur. Oxcarbazepine helps to restore the balance of this activity.

• Controls Seizure Frequency: By regulating the electrical activity in the brain, oxcarbazepine effectively helps reduce the frequency of seizures, thereby managing the symptoms of epilepsy.

• Always store Oxetol XR 300 Tablet below 30°C in a cool, dry place.

• Keep it away from direct sunlight to maintain its effectiveness.

• Ensure the medicine is kept out of children's reach at all times to prevent accidental ingestion.

• Be sure to use Oxetol XR 300 Tablet before the expiry date printed on the package.

• As Oxetol XR 300 Tablet is used to manage epilepsy, incorporating a diet that consists of a high ratio of fats to carbohydrates, often referred to as a 'ketogenic diet', may be beneficial. This diet can potentially help control seizures in some people with epilepsy.

• Regular exercise can also aid in managing epilepsy. However, always ensure you have medical supervision or companionship during physical activities to ensure safety in case of an unexpected seizure.
