Description
Lerace Injection 5ml – Levetiracetam for Seizure Control
Lerace Injection 5ml contains Levetiracetam, an anticonvulsant (anti-epileptic) medicine administered intravenously (IV) or intramuscularly (IM) in hospital settings. It is indicated when oral administration is not possible — such as during status epilepticus, perioperative seizure management, or acute seizure episodes requiring rapid intervention.
Levetiracetam stabilises abnormal electrical activity in the brain, reducing the frequency and severity of partial-onset, myoclonic, and generalised tonic-clonic seizures. The same neuropsychiatric precautions that apply to oral Levetiracetam apply here: monitor for behavioural changes, depression, mood disturbances, and suicidal ideation. Dose adjustment is required in patients with renal impairment. Administration must be performed by a qualified healthcare professional under medical supervision.

Monitor for neuropsychiatric side effects including mood changes, behavioural disturbances, and depression. Do not discontinue suddenly; taper under medical guidance.
FAQs
What is Lerace Injection 5ml used for?
It is used for the treatment and prevention of seizures in patients with epilepsy who cannot take oral medication, including in status epilepticus and perioperative settings.
Who can administer Lerace Injection?
It must be administered by a qualified healthcare professional in a hospital or clinical setting — not for home use.
What neuropsychiatric warnings apply to Lerace Injection?
The same warnings as oral Levetiracetam apply: monitor for behavioural changes, depression, agitation, and suicidal ideation. Report any mood changes to the attending physician immediately.
Is dose adjustment needed in kidney disease?
Yes. Levetiracetam is renally excreted; dose adjustment is required in patients with renal impairment. The prescribing doctor will determine the appropriate dose.
