Pregnancy: Carbamazepine should be prescribed as monotherapy, because the incidence of congenital abnormalities in the offspring of women treated with more than one antiepileptic drug is greater than in those of women receiving a single antiepileptic.
Lactation: Carbamazepine passes into breast milk in concentrations of 25% to 60% of the plasma level. The benefits of breast-feeding should be weighed against the possible risk to the infant.
