About Levetal 500mg Tablet
Levetal 500mg Tablet 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). Levetal 500mg Tablet 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.
Levetal 500mg Tablet 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.
