Fever as an adverse reaction to carbamazepine.
Two middle-aged women developed fever and abnormal liver function tests while taking carbamazepine. In one case the fever recurred following drug challenge. There are possible links to the known immune-related effects of the drug. Carbamazepine should be considered as a cause if fever or cholestasis develops in any person taking the drug.
