Oxtellar XR is the once-daily extended-release formulation of oxcarbazepine. Same active drug as Trileptal (twice-daily IR) — the XR formulation simplifies dosing for adherence and may improve tolerability by smoothing peak levels.
How Oxtellar XR Works:
Oxcarbazepine blocks voltage-gated sodium channels reducing neuronal hyperexcitability in partial-onset seizures.
The XR formulation provides sustained 24-hour drug levels from a single daily dose. Simpler dosing improves adherence; smoother levels may reduce dose-related side effects.
Form and use:
Oxtellar XR is taken once daily by mouth, on an empty stomach (at least 1 hour before food or 2 hours after). Available as 150/300/600 mg tablets. Start 600 mg/day, titrate weekly. Do not crush, chew, or split tablets.
Generic availability:
Generic oxcarbazepine extended-release is available. Generic immediate-release oxcarbazepine (Trileptal generic, twice-daily) is very cheap.
Warnings:
Same as Trileptal: hyponatremia (monitor sodium), serious skin reactions (HLA-B*1502 testing in Asian patients), hypersensitivity, suicidal ideation (AED class), withdrawal seizures, embryo-fetal toxicity.
Brand $700–$1,000/month. Generic IR oxcarbazepine ~$15/month (twice-daily). Generic XR also available.
Once-daily dosing for convenience and adherence. May reduce peak-related side effects. For cost-sensitive patients, twice-daily generic IR is much cheaper.
Yes — both are oxcarbazepine. Oxtellar XR is once daily; Trileptal is twice daily.
Yes, FDA-approved bioequivalent.
Yes. Take at least 1 hour before food or 2 hours after for consistent absorption. Food significantly affects XR absorption.
