The widely used anti-seizure medication Trileptal (Oxcarbazepine) is made by Novartis Pharmaceuticals, a leader in general and specialty medicines. The drug was approved by the FDA on January 14, 2000, and has been available for use in the United States since February of 2000. The Food and Drug Administration approved the drug to treat partial seizures in adults and children between the ages of four and sixteen. More than 1,000,000 patients throughout the United States and other countries have been prescribed Trileptal.

There have been reports of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome occurring with children and adults taking Trileptal, some of which have required hospitalization. In fact, the prescribing information provided by Novartis regarding Trileptal states that: "Serious dermatological reactions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome and toxic epidermal necrolysis, have been reported in association with TRILEPTAL use."

If you or a loved one has taken Trileptal and experienced any of the symptoms of the deadly skin condition known as Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS), such as skin lesions, skin peeling, skin rashes, or eye or eyelid disorders you should seek medical attention immediately.
