How Emlevo 100 MG Tablet 10 Works?
Emlevo 100 MG Tablet 10 comprises levetiracetam (100 mg), which impacts the body in the following ways:
- Binding to SV2A Proteins: Levetiracetam attaches itself to SV2A proteins found on the surface of synaptic vesicles within your brain. This binding process assists in regulating nerve cell activity.
- Suppressing Abnormal Neuronal Excitation: Once levetiracetam has attached itself to SV2A sites, it appears to suppress the abnormal excitement of nerve cells that leads to the spread of seizure activity.
