Q. How long does Levetiracetam take to show its effect?
Levetiracetam may take a few weeks to start working properly since the dose is increased slowly. Your seizures may continue until Levetiracetam starts working completely.

You should continue to take Levetiracetam for as long as your doctor advises you to. Do not stop taking it suddenly because this may increase the frequency of seizures which may be difficult to control.

Q. How do I come off Levetiracetam?
The dose of Levetiracetam should be slowly reduced. You may have to take this medicine for a few months before you can stop it completely. Do not reduce the dose without asking your doctor.
