Hello Priya
You are taking ZEN RETARD ( CARBAMAZEPINE ) 200 mg one morning and two in the night .
Now you want to to conceive .
So this thing is for your information .
It reduces polysynaptic responses and blocks post-tetanic potentiation . Effective in partial and generalized and mixed types convulsions .
Carbamazine ( zen retard ) also reduces pain in trigeminal neuralgias and glossopharyngeal neuralgias.
I mentioned all these things ( however , these are medically related ) so that you can easily understand that there is NOT any untoward effect on your baby during pregnancy i.e. NOT CONTRAINDICATED in pregnancy .
Hope this will help you.
I find this answer helpful
