HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it may not be pure optic neuritis, some time it could be nonspecific because steroid works here and it gives excellent results, now in my opinion "Tab Carbamazepine 200 mg" can be tired once in day, and better to get done some test like MRI study, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day
I find this answer helpful
