Oxcarbazepine And Birth Control
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

I take Oxcarbazepine. Recently had my second son. Looking into birth control that won't affect my epilepsy medicine and vice versa. From my research, it's very limited.

I read that it highers the chances of osteoporosis. Which my seizure meds already higher the chances of developing it.
