Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Diaoxia Work?

  1. Blocking voltage-gated sodium channels: It inhibits the influx of sodium ions into neurons, stabilizing hyperexcited neuronal membranes and reducing the likelihood of seizure activity.
  2. Modulating neurotransmitter release: It may also affect the release of certain neurotransmitters, contributing to its anticonvulsant effects.


Common Dosages

  • Tablets: Available in strengths of 150 mg, 300 mg, and 600 mg.
  • Oral suspension: Typically available in a concentration of 300 mg/5 mL.

Typical Dosing

  • For partial seizures: The initial dose for adults is usually 600 mg per day, taken in two divided doses, with possible titration based on response and tolerability. The dosage for children may vary based on age and weight.


Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Treatment of partial seizures in adults and pediatric patients aged 2 years and older.
  • Monotherapy or adjunctive therapy in the treatment of epilepsy.


Who Shouldn't Take Diaoxia?

  • Known hypersensitivity to oxcarbazepine or any components of the formulation.
  • History of carbamazepine allergy, as there is a cross-sensitivity risk.

Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Take Diaoxia exactly as prescribed, and do not adjust the dose without consulting your healthcare provider.
  • Monitor for any signs of allergic reactions or severe skin reactions and report them immediately.
  • Gradually tapering the dose is important if discontinuing the medication to avoid withdrawal seizures.


Side Effects of Diaoxia

Common Side Effects

  • Dizziness
  • Drowsiness
  • Fatigue
  • Nausea
  • Double vision


Uncommon/Severe Side Effects

  • Severe skin reactions (such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome)
  • Hyponatremia (low sodium levels)
  • Allergic reactions (such as rash, itching, or swelling)


Risks and Warnings of Diaoxia

  • Skin Reactions: Patients should be monitored for any signs of skin rashes or hypersensitivity, especially during the first few months of treatment.
  • Electrolyte Imbalances: Regular monitoring of sodium levels is recommended, particularly in elderly patients or those with conditions that may predispose them to hyponatremia.


Interactions with Diaoxia

Common Drug Interactions

  • Other anticonvulsants: May require dose adjustments when used in conjunction with other seizure medications.
  • Oral contraceptives: Oxcarbazepine can reduce the effectiveness of hormonal contraceptives, so alternative methods of contraception should be considered.


Alternatives to Diaoxia

  • Other anticonvulsants: Such as lamotrigine, levetiracetam, or carbamazepine, which may be suitable for managing partial seizures.
  • Surgical options: In select cases where medication is ineffective, surgical intervention may be considered.
