To give Epilive Syrup 100ml properly, you should follow these instructions:

• Make sure to shake the bottle well before using this medicine.
• After shaking, use a calibrated measuring device to ensure accurate syrup dosing.

• Always remember to replace the cap tightly after use.

Epilive Syrup 100ml is given orally.

Epilive Syrup 100ml contains levetiracetam (100 mg), which acts on the body as follows:

• Synaptic Vesicle Protein Binding: Levetiracetam selectively binds to a protein in brain cells known as synaptic vesicle protein SV2A. This interaction helps control the release of chemicals that send signals to the brain.
• Modulation of Neurotransmitter Release: By binding with the synaptic vesicle protein SV2A, levetiracetam helps regulate the release of neurotransmitters, chemicals that transmit signals from one nerve cell to another. This action helps reduce abnormal electrical activity in the brain that can lead to seizures.
• Protection Against Seizures: Studies suggest that levetiracetam has protective activity against both partial and secondarily generalised seizures, which are common in epilepsy.

• Store Epilive Syrup 100ml in a cool, dry place, ideally at a temperature below 30°C.
• Protect the medicine from light exposure.
• Keep the bottle tightly sealed after each use.
• Ensure it is out of the reach of children.
• Always check the expiry date before use; do not consume if expired.

• Try to maintain a regular sleep schedule for your child. Regular sleep patterns can help manage epilepsy symptoms and decrease the frequency of seizures.
• Establish a balanced diet for your child. A well-nourished body responds better to medication, like Epilive Syrup 100ml, which aids in managing seizures.
