LEVETIRACETAM

Therapeutic Action

Antiepileptic

Indications

Convulsive status epilepticus in infants, children and pregnant women.

Contact your OC advisor for the treatment protocol.

Instructions for use

Dilute the concentrate solution vial in at least 100 ml of 0.9% NaCl.

Must be given as slow IV infusion.

Levetiracetam can be used as an alternative first-line treatment when phenobarbital is not available.

Injectable valproate sodium can be used as an alternative for epilepsy, in adults only.

Due to the international shortage of injectable phenobarbital and phenytoin, levetiracetam is an alternative for the management of status epilepticus in infants, children, and pregnant women.

Precautions for Use

Do not administer by rapid IV infusion or direct IV injection.

Do not administer the solution undiluted.

Do not administer by SC injection

Storage

  • Below 25ºC
