How to interpret Levetiracetam Test Report
A Levetiracetam Test quantifies its level in blood serum. Levetiracetam has a wide therapeutic range varying from 12.0 - 46.0 mg/L. Ranges above 46 mg/L indicate potential toxicity. If the drug level is coming above therapeutic range the patient experiences adverse side-effects and this is even more in kidney-dysfunction patients. Personalised levetiracetam dose is important to treat epilepsy patients.
