Indications

Levetiracetam is indicated for the treatment of epileptic seizures, in both adults and children aged 4 years and older. It is used as adjunctive therapy in partial epilepsy, with or without secondary generalization, and in myoclonic and generalized tonic-clonic seizures. Its use is recommended in patients who show an insufficient response to other antiepileptics, thus offering a valuable option for seizure control. In addition, Levetiracetam has been shown to be effective in the management of certain neurological and psychiatric disorders, although its use in these areas should be considered with caution and under strict medical supervision.

Composition

Each Levetiracetam tablet contains 500 mg of levetiracetam as the active ingredient, as well as excipients necessary for the drug's formulation.

Contraindications

This medication is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to levetiracetam or to any of the excipients present in the formulation. Its use should be avoided in individuals with a history of severe allergic reactions to antiepileptic drugs.

Precautions

Caution is recommended in patients with renal insufficiency, as dose adjustment may be necessary. Likewise, monitoring should be considered in patients with a history of psychiatric disorders, as levetiracetam may be associated with changes in mood and behavior. It is important to inform the physician about any other medications the patient is taking to avoid interactions.

Storage

Store the medication in its original container, at room temperature, protected from light and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.

Consult your doctor.
