Description
Lerace 750mg Tablet (Levetiracetam)
Lerace 750mg Tablet contains Levetiracetam 750mg, a higher-dose formulation of this second-generation anticonvulsant used in the long-term management of epilepsy and seizure disorders. Levetiracetam works by selectively binding to SV2A synaptic vesicle proteins, modulating neurotransmitter release and reducing the excessive neuronal firing responsible for seizures.
Lerace 750mg is prescribed for patients requiring higher doses for adequate seizure control, including partial-onset, myoclonic, and generalised tonic-clonic seizures. It can be used as monotherapy or in combination with other anti-epileptic medicines based on clinical evaluation. Long-term consistent therapy is essential for maintaining seizure-free periods and improving quality of life.
Important Safety Information
- Do NOT stop abruptly: Abrupt withdrawal can cause serious breakthrough seizures or status epilepticus. Tapering must be performed gradually and only under a physician's supervision.
- Psychiatric side effects: Behavioural changes including aggression, irritability, mood disturbances, depression, and suicidal ideation have been reported. All patients should be monitored closely, with immediate reporting of any concerning behavioural or mood changes to their healthcare provider.
- Teratogenicity: Levetiracetam carries a teratogenic risk. Female patients of childbearing potential must have a detailed discussion with their doctor about family planning, contraception, and the specific risks of continuing therapy during pregnancy.
- Renal dose adjustment: Levetiracetam is renally eliminated; dose must be adjusted in renal impairment. eGFR should be checked before initiation and monitored during therapy.
