Keppra

Keppra, also known by its generic name levetiracetam, is a medication used to treat epilepsy. It helps prevent seizures by calming abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Keppra is usually taken orally and can be used alone or with other epilepsy medications. It is generally well-tolerated, with common side effects including dizziness or fatigue. Keppra’s precise mechanism isn’t fully understood, but it works by modulating nerve activity to reduce the likelihood of seizures, helping individuals maintain better control over their condition and improve quality of life.
