Known Contraindications

  • Warning
    Phenobarbital speeds levetiracetam clearance (lower peaks, faster elimination); dogs on phenobarbital may need a higher dose, guided by serum levels.
    Sources: ACVIM · JVIM
  • Warning (Dog)
    Intravenous levetiracetam: dilute and give slowly. A rapid undiluted 60 mg/kg bolus caused tachycardia, hypotension, hyperglycaemia and dull mentation in a dog.
