About Levipil Syrup 100 ml
Levipil Syrup 100 ml belongs to a group of medications known as ‘anti-convulsant’ primarily used to treat seizures (fits) due to epilepsy. Epilepsy is a chronic condition where the patients have repeated fits (convulsions). Levipil Syrup 100 ml is used for the epilepsy form in which the fits affect only one side of the brain, but could extend to larger areas on both sides of the brain.
Levipil Syrup 100 ml contains Levetiracetam, used in combination or alone for treating symptoms of epilepsy. It works by slowing down the abnormal signals which the brain gives, leading to episodes of seizures. It helps by suppressing specific brain sites responsible for abnormal activity and prevents the spread of electrical signals that cause seizures. It reduces the episodes of seizures but does not cure epilepsy.
You can take Levipil Syrup 100 ml with food or without food. Do not chew, bite, or break it. Your doctor will decide how often you should take Levipil Syrup 100 ml based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience daytime drowsiness, disturbed sleep, light-headedness, or dizziness, sleepiness, general weakness, and unexplained infections. Most of these side effects of Levipil Syrup 100 ml do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, please reach out to your doctor.
It is not known if Levipil Syrup 100 ml is safe or effective in children below four years of age. Do not take Levipil Syrup 100 ml if you have any kidney disease, lung disease, muscle weakness (myasthenia gravis), difficulty in sleeping (sleep apnoea), severe liver disease, or a problem with alcohol or other prescription drugs. It is not known if Levipil Syrup 100 ml will harm the foetus or not if you are pregnant or planning to get pregnant. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how Levipil Syrup 100 ml affects you, as its intake may make you dizzy or sleepy.
Young children (especially less than 16 years) are more likely to develop behavioural changes like aggression than adults, so Levipil Syrup 100 ml should only be given under medical supervision to children. Suddenly stopping Levipil Syrup 100 ml can cause withdrawal symptoms like anxiety, increased heart rate, tremor, or general unwell feeling. Suicidal thoughts or actions can be caused in some patients taking Levipil Syrup 100 ml, so pay attention to any sudden change in mood swings, behaviour, or feeling.
