What is LEPITAM INJECTION?
LEPITAM INJECTION is a prescription medication that contains Levetiracetam, a second-generation antiepileptic drug. It belongs to a class of medications known as anticonvulsants. It works by regulating the transmission of electrical impulses in the brain, helping prevent and control seizures. The injection form is used in critical care settings or in patients who are unconscious, uncooperative, or unable to swallow.
This medication is commonly used in:
- Generalized tonic-clonic seizures
- Partial-onset seizures
- Myoclonic seizures
- Status epilepticus (under clinical supervision)
It is also an excellent option for hospitalized patients, those undergoing surgery, or those in emergency settings where rapid seizure control is necessary.
Composition and Packaging Details
- Active Ingredient: Levetiracetam 500mg
- Packing Size: 5ml vial with carton
- Form: Injectable solution
- Brand Name: LEPITAM INJECTION
Every vial of LEPITAM INJECTION is carefully manufactured and packed to ensure sterility, potency, and ease of administration in hospital and clinical environments.
How LEPITAM INJECTION Works
Levetiracetam, the active ingredient in LEPITAM INJECTION, modulates the activity of certain neurotransmitters in the brain. It binds to a protein known as SV2A (synaptic vesicle protein 2A), which plays a critical role in the release of neurotransmitters. By binding to this protein, Levetiracetam reduces the abnormal electrical activity in the brain that causes seizures.
The injectable form ensures quick bioavailability and immediate action, making it ideal in acute care or emergency conditions. Within minutes of administration, it begins to stabilize neuronal activity, reducing the severity and frequency of seizures.
