RAte of absorbtion of tegretol - how long does it take?

Hi,
I had a blood test the other day for my tegretol levels. They were quite above the therapeutic range. However I did not know I was to have a test that day so I took my morning dose (600mg) and the test was a couple of hours later. I know that normally when I have a test I dont take my dose until after the test. My GP has decided to reduce my dosage. But could the levels have been high due to me taking my morning dose? How long does it take for the tegretol to enter the bloodstream?
