Epilive Premix 500mg Infusion 100ml contains levetiracetam (500 mg), which acts on the body as follows:

• Binding to Specific Sites:  Levetiracetam binds to synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A (SV2A) in the brain. Though the exact mechanism remains incompletely understood, modulation of SV2A is thought to inhibit presynaptic neurotransmitter release, particularly during high-frequency neuronal discharges, thereby preventing seizure propagation.
• Inhibiting Epileptiform Burst Firing: Levetiracetam selectively inhibits epileptiform burst firing, which helps to prevent rapid, repeated neuron firing that could lead to seizures.
• Preventing Seizure Propagation: Levetiracetam also limits the spread of seizure activity within the brain, making it effective in controlling generalised seizures.

• Keep Epilive Premix 500mg Infusion 100ml in a cool, dry place where the temperature stays below 30°C.
• Protect it from light and moisture.
• Always keep this medicine out of the reach and sight of children and pets.
• It's essential to use Epilive Premix 500mg Infusion 100ml before the expiration date on the product packaging.

• Moderate exercise can improve mental and physical well-being, help manage stress, and reduce seizure triggers. 
• Proper hydration is essential when taking levetiracetam, as dehydration may worsen certain side effects like dizziness and headaches.
• Aim to limit processed foods and refined sugars, as they can cause fluctuations in blood sugar levels, potentially impacting neurological health.
