Levipil Syrup

Product Introduction

Levipil Syrup is an anti-epileptic medicine used to treat seizures (fits) in epilepsy. It can be taken alone or along with other medicines. It helps to prevent seizures for as long as you continue to take it.

Levipil Syrup suppresses abnormal electrical activity in the brain. You can take it with or without food, but try to take it at the same time each day to get the best results. The dose depends on your condition and response to the medicine. It is generally prescribed as a long-term treatment. Do not stop or miss doses, as this may worsen seizures.

Some common side effects include headache, irritation, sleepiness, behavior changes, aggression, and decreased appetite. Side effects are more common in the first few weeks and usually improve as your body adjusts. Most side effects do not require medical attention, but some can be serious. Rarely, people may have thoughts of harming or killing themselves. Contact your doctor if your mood worsens.

Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have kidney problems, depression, suicidal thoughts, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Your doctor may suggest regular blood tests to monitor kidney function during treatment.
