What is levetiracetam and how does it work?
Levetiracetam is an anticonvulsant (antiepileptic) medicine sold under the brand names Keppra, Keppra XR, Elepsia XR, and Spritam. It belongs to a drug class that works on the SV2A synaptic vesicle protein in the brain, which helps calm the abnormal electrical activity that leads to seizures. It is FDA-approved as an add-on (adjunctive) therapy for partial-onset (focal) seizures in patients 1 month and older, for myoclonic seizures in juvenile myoclonic epilepsy in patients 12 and older, and for primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures in patients 6 and older.
Levetiracetam comes in immediate-release and extended-release tablets, an oral solution, and dissolvable formulations, so your prescriber can match the form and dose to your needs. Your doctor decides which product and strength is right for you.
Levetiracetam cost and coupon savings
Levetiracetam is already one of the more affordable seizure medications because a generic is widely available. Even so, the cash price without insurance can differ a lot between pharmacies in the same town, which is exactly why it pays to compare before you fill. A free Rx.com discount coupon can lower the cash price whether or not you have insurance, and there is no membership required.
To see what levetiracetam costs near you, enter your ZIP code above. Rx.com checks live prices across more than 60,000 pharmacies so you can pick the lowest one today. If your prescriber wrote for the brand, ask whether the generic levetiracetam is appropriate for you, since it usually costs far less. You can also compare the brand on our Keppra page.
Levetiracetam vs. related seizure medications
Levetiracetam is one of several antiepileptic drugs your neurologist may consider. The brand-name equivalent is Keppra. A closely related newer medicine is brivaracetam, which works on the same SV2A target. Other commonly prescribed alternatives with different mechanisms include lamotrigine, lacosamide, and topiramate.
Every seizure medicine has a different balance of benefits, side effects, and dosing, and the right choice depends on your seizure type and health history. This is a decision to make with your prescriber, not to switch on your own. If cost is a factor, you can compare coupon prices for each of these on Rx.com to help inform that conversation.
Levetiracetam safety and side effects
The most notable risk with levetiracetam is behavioral and psychiatric effects, including irritability, aggression, agitation, anxiety, depression, and mood changes. Like all antiepileptic drugs, it carries a class-wide warning that it can increase the risk of suicidal thoughts or behavior in a small number of people (roughly 1 in 500). It can also cause drowsiness, dizziness, fatigue, and coordination difficulties, so use caution driving or operating machinery until you know how it affects you.
Rare but serious reactions include severe skin reactions (such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, and DRESS) and allergic reactions like anaphylaxis or angioedema; seek medical care right away for a spreading rash, blistering, or facial swelling. Do not stop levetiracetam suddenly, as this can trigger increased or more severe seizures. People with reduced kidney function often need a lower dose. This is general information, not medical advice, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist about your specific situation before making any changes.
