You need to talk to your doctor right away. The manufacturer states "Tegretol (Carbamazepine) may cause harm to an unborn baby, but having a seizure during pregnancy could harm both the mother and the baby. Tell your doctor right away if you become pregnant while taking carbamazepine for seizures. Do not start or stop taking carbamazepine during pregnancy without your doctor's advice."
