CompositionKEPPRA 500MG TABLET 10 is used to treat various types of seizures associated with epilepsy, including partial-onset, myoclonic, and generalised tonic-clonic seizures. It helps steady the electrical activity in the brain and reduce how often seizures occur.
It contains levetiracetam, an antiepileptic medicine. It works by helping to control the abnormal bursts of electrical activity in the brain that trigger seizures. It can be used on its own or alongside other antiepileptic medicines. Take it exactly as prescribed to keep seizure control steady, and never stop it suddenly, as this can trigger seizures.
Some general measures can help alongside this medicine. These include getting regular sleep, limiting alcohol, and keeping a record of any seizures or mood changes to share with your doctor.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor about any kidney problems, mental health conditions, or other medicines you take. Tell your doctor promptly about mood or behaviour changes, such as low mood, irritability, or aggression, as these can occur with this medicine. Continue taking it as prescribed even if you feel well. Continue taking it for the full duration prescribed, and do not stop it without medical advice.
