However;in vitro studies have demonstrated that levetiractem opposesthe activity of negative modulators of GABA· and glycine-gated currents and partially inhibits N-type calcium currentsin neuronal cells.A saturable and stereoselective neuronal binding site in ratbrain tissue has been described for Ievetiracetam. Experimen-tal data indicate that this binding site is the synaptic vescleprotein SV2A. thought to be involved in the regulation ofvesicle exocytosis.

The total body clearance is 0.96 mUminfkg and the renal clearance is 0.6 mUminlkg. The mechanismof excretion is glomerular filtration with subsequent partialtubular reabsorption. The metabolite ucb L057 is exC'J'elOdby glomerular filtration and active tubular secretion with arenal clearance of 4 mUminlkg. Levetiracetam elimination iscorrelated to creatinine clearance. Levetiracetam clearance isreduced in patients with impaired renal function

~Ttratam is indicated as adjunctive therapy in the treatmentof pamal onset seizures in adults and children 4 years of ageand older with epilepsy.Tmltam is indicated as adjunctive therapy in the treatment ofmyoclonic seizures in adults and adolescents 12 years of ageand older with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy.Ttratam is indicated as adjunctive therapy in the treatmentof primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures in adults andchildren 6 years of age and older with idiopathic general-ized epilepsy.

2-Dosage & administratjon'Partial Onset SeizuresAdults 16 lears and OlderTreatment should be initiated with a daily dose of 1000 mg!day, given as twice-daily dosing (500 mg BID). Additionaldosing increments may be given (1000 mg/day additionalevery 2 weeks) to a maximum recommended daily dose of3000 mg. Doses greater than 3000 mg/day have been used inopea-tabel studies for periods of 6 months and longer. Thereis no evidence tbat doses greater than 3000 mgiday conferadditional benefit.
