A member asked:

What if i miss a dose of levetiracetam 250mg ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Varies: You do not indicate why you are taking levetiracetam, or your total daily dose. It is usually used to prevent epileptic seizures, and if you miss your medication, you are at risk for having a breakthrough seizure.
