The initial dose of Levetiracetam is 1 g on the first day of treatment in two divided doses. Thereafter, daily dose may be increased in increments of 1 g every 2 to 4 weeks until effective antiepileptic control is achieved, up to a maximum dose of 3 g daily or as prescribed by the physician. As with other antiepileptics, withdrawal of Levetiracetam therapy or transition to or from another type of antiepileptic therapy should be made gradually to avoid precipitating an increase in the frequency of seizures.
