Why use Levetiracetam XR Tablet?
Levetiracetam is a potent medicine that is developed to have a long-acting effect.

Furthermore, because this medicine does not increase seizure activity, it may result in a lower phenobarbital dose requirement. It may be an effective treatment for seizures caused by hepatic encephalopathy and liver damage caused by phenobarbital in some situations.
