How it works

From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (Levetiracetam). It describes the substance, not this exact product.

The precise mechanism(s) by which levetiracetam exerts its antiepileptic effect is unknown.

A saturable and stereoselective neuronal binding site in rat brain tissue has been described for levetiracetam.

How the body breaks it down

Levetiracetam is not extensively metabolized in humans.

How it leaves the body

Levetiracetam is eliminated from the systemic circulation by renal excretion as unchanged drug which represents 66% of administered dose.

With food

Food does not affect the extent of absorption of levetiracetam but it decreases C max by 20% and delays T max by 1.5 hours.
