Keppra Solution contains levetiracetam (100 mg), which acts on the body as follows:

• Binding Site Inhibition: Levetiracetam works by binding to a specific site (SV2A) on the surface of nerve cells in the brain. This action suppresses the abnormal electrical activity of these neurons.

• Signal Prevention: By inhibiting this abnormal activity, levetiracetam effectively prevents the spread of seizure-inducing signals.

• Nerve Cell Regulation: The medicine helps control and reduce the frequency of epileptic seizures by regulating the excessive excitation of nerve cells in the brain.

• Store Keppra Solution at room temperature below 30°C.

• Protect from light and moisture.

• Keep the bottle sealed when not in use.

• It's crucial to keep Keppra Solution out of reach of children.

• Make sure you use the solution before its expiry date.

• Regular physical activity can help reduce stress, which has been known to trigger epileptic seizures. Ensure you or your child engage in suitable exercises as advised by the doctor.

• A diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids, found in foods like fish and flaxseeds, can potentially help manage epilepsy. However, always consult your doctor before making significant dietary changes.
