How it works
Blocks hyperactive sodium channels in the trigeminal nerve, reducing the ectopic discharge that produces characteristic brief electric-shock facial pain attacks.
Prescription only. Requires blood monitoring. If facial pain has the characteristic trigeminal neuralgia features (brief, triggered, electric-shock quality), referral for MRI to exclude vascular compression is recommended.
Medical guidance
This remedy requires a prescription or pharmacist consultation in Australia. Speak to your GP or pharmacist before use.
