Isolated cases of grand mal seizures and seizures have been reported following administration of Cerebrolysin. For this reason, according to the documentation of the drug Cerebrolysin, it should not be used if the patient has epilepsy (especially with grand mal seizures), as the use of the drug may increase the frequency of seizures. You do not have seizures, because Tegretol CR 200 proved to be an effective drug, but this does not mean that you no longer suffer from epilepsy. Such information about the drug I can convey from a pharmaceutical point of view. However, because of the possible risks in a patient with epilepsy, only a doctor with all the information about your condition could decide whether to use Cerebrolysin in your case if the potential benefit significantly outweighed the known risk. I enclose additional information about the drug Cerebrolysin - it is on prescription, it can be booked online and collected stationary upon presentation of the prescription: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/16706/cerebrolysin-iniekcja/apteki/w-warszawie Similarly, Tegretol CR 200: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/77738/tegretol-cr-200-tabletki-o-zmodyfikowanym-uwalnianiu/apteki/w-warszawie
