Aptiom (active ingredient: eslicarbazepine) is a prescription medication indicated for:

  • Partial-Onset Seizures: Aptiom is used as adjunctive treatment (along with other medications) for partial-onset seizures in patients aged 4 years and older with epilepsy.

Aptiom belongs to a class of drugs known as voltage-gated sodium channel blockers, which stabilize the hyperexcitable neuronal membranes involved in seizures, thereby reducing their occurrence.

Aptiom is available as tablets that can be taken orally with or without food, as directed by a doctor, usually once a day. To minimize the risk of side effects, doctors may start treatment with a low dose and gradually increase the dosage based on the patient’s response. Follow the doctor’s instructions carefully and take the tablet at the same time each day for maximum benefit.

Do not exceed the recommended dosage or use Aptiom more often or for a longer time than prescribed. Your condition will not improve any faster, but you may increase your risk of side effects. Do not stop this medication without consulting your doctor, as some conditions may worsen if the drug is suddenly discontinued. Your dose may need to be gradually decreased.

The recommended dosage is based on the patient’s medical condition and response to treatment, with children’s dosages being determined by weight.

  • Adults: The typical starting dose is 400 mg or 800 mg by mouth once daily. The dose is raised weekly based on how well you respond to the medication. The typical long-term (maintenance) dose is 800 mg to 1,600 mg once daily.
  • Children 4 to 17 years of age: The dose is based on your child’s weight and given by mouth once daily. The dose is raised weekly based on how well your child is responding to the medication. The starting dose ranges from 200 mg to 400 mg once daily, and the long-term (maintenance) dose ranges from 400 mg to 1,200 mg once daily.
