According to http://www.merck.com/mmpe/lexicomp/carbamazepine.html, one of the "Adverse Reactions" is "Hepatic: Abnormal liver function tests, hepatic failure, hepatitis, jaundice". I'm taking Trileptal, which is also made by Novartis, without any adverse reactions, but I think the risk of elevated liver functions is the same. There must be something else you can take, though. Your GI and Neurologist can sort it out for you, I'm sure.
Best of luck to you!
