Indications:
1. Levetiracetam is used on its own in adults and adolescents from 16 years of age with newly diagnosed epilepsy, to treat a certain form of epilepsy. Epilepsy is a condition where the patients have repeated fits (seizures).
Levetiracetam is used for the epilepsy form in which the fits initially affect only one side of the brain, but could thereafter extend to larger areas on both sides of the brain (partial onset seizure with or without secondary generalization). Levetiracetam has been given to you by your doctor to reduce the number of fits.
2. as an add-on to other antiepileptic medicines to treat:

  • partial onset seizures with or without generalisation in adults, adolescents, children and infants from one month of age;
  • myoclonic seizures (short, shock-like jerks of a muscle or group of muscles) in adults and
adolescents from 12 years of age with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy;
  • primary generalised tonic-clonic seizures (major fits, including loss of consciousness) in adults and adolescents from 12 years of age with idiopathic generalised epilepsy (the type of epilepsy that is thought to have a genetic cause).
