Dosage
Overdose
An overdose of Epilive syrup can lead to sleepiness, irritability, hostility, reduced awareness, respiratory depression, and coma. If you have taken more tablets than prescribed, consult your doctor. Your doctor will determine the appropriate course of action in the event of an overdose....

Mode of Action
How Does It Work?
Epilive syrup operates by binding to specific sites (SV2A) on the surfaces of nerve cells. This halts the transmission of electrical signals that trigger seizures by inhibiting abnormal nerve cell activity in the brain....
Interactions
Interactions with other medicines
- Tell your doctor about all the medicines, supplements, or herbals you are currently taking or might take to avoid any possible interaction.
- It has been observed that taking levetiracetam and methotrexate together reduces methotrexate clearance, resulting in higher/longer blood methotrexate concentrations that are potentially hazardous.
- Co-administration of levetiracetam and a laxative called macrogol may decrease the efficacy of levetiracetam. Hence, use macrogol one hour before or after using levetiracetam.
