General & Family Physician 's  Response
He is on tab oxetol 300 morning and 600 in the evening. I do not know why total dose is not devided in equal mg. Both drugs are indicated in partial seizures. I think drug has to given daily wthout any miss and their effect starts after 4 days .If drug is given say tab oxetol 450 twice a day. If seizure is not conrolled with dose we can increase up to 600mg twice a day. If i have to treat such a patient i will advice tab oxetol ( dose of tab oxetol is 20 to30mg per kg of body weight ) to inctease gradualy up to 30mg per kilo body weight.
