Levetiracetam
Levetiracetam is a novel antiepileptic drug used to treat partial, myoclonic, and tonic-clonic seizures. The most relevant mechanism of action is believed to be binding to a unique synaptic vesicle protein 2A (SV2A). SV2A protein is a part of secretory vesicle membranes that mediates calcium-dependent vesicular neurotransmitter release. The binding of levetiracetam to SV2A appears to decrease the rate of vesicle release & prevents the spread of electrical signals that causes seizures.
Benefits & Usage
LEVETZER-250/500/750 tablets works by suppressing specific brain sites & slowing down the spread ability of abnormal electrical signals given the brain that causes episodes of seizures.
