What is Levetiracetam?

Levetiracetam is an anticonvulsant medication that treats seizures in dogs and cats. It can be used by itself or with other anticonvulsant medications. Levetiracetam is in certain cases safer for pets to use than other anticonvulsant medications because it passes through the urine instead of being broken down by the liver or metabolized by the kidneys. Levetiracetam requires a prescription from your veterinarian and is sold by the tablet.

For:

Dogs and Cats

Benefits:

  • Helps control seizures
  • Increases your pet's quality of life
  • Can be combined with other anticonvulsant medications
  • In certain cases, safer to use than other anticonvulsant medications
  • Sold by the tablet

How does Levetiracetam work?

Levetiracetam decreases abnormal excitement in nerves in the brain and as a result, reduces seizures.

Cautions:

Even though Levetiracetam isn't metabolized by the kidneys, tell your veterinarian if your pet has kidney disease. The dosage may have to be reduced as a result. Do not stop giving Levetiracetam suddenly unless directed by your veterinarian. Suddenly stopping dosages can result in your pet experiencing a seizure. Tell your veterinarian if your pet is pregnant or lactating.
