About this product

Overview

Fitzloc 750mg Tablet contains the active ingredient Levetiracetam. It belongs to the class of antiepileptic drugs and is primarily used in the management of epilepsy and seizure disorders. Levetiracetam works by stabilizing electrical activity in the brain, thereby reducing the occurrence and severity of seizures.

Uses

  1. Epilepsy: Fitzloc 750mg Tablet is prescribed for the treatment of epilepsy, a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures.
  2. Seizure Disorders: It may also be used to control various types of seizures, including partial-onset seizures, generalized tonic-clonic seizures, and myoclonic seizures.

Mechanism of Action

The exact mechanism of action of Levetiracetam is not fully understood. However, it is believed to exert its antiepileptic effects by binding to synaptic vesicle protein 2A (SV2A) in the brain, which modulates neurotransmitter release and neuronal excitability.

Dosage and Administration

  • The dosage of Fitzloc 750mg Tablet is determined by the healthcare provider based on factors such as the patient’s age, weight, and the type of seizures being treated.
  • It is usually taken orally with or without food, as directed by the physician.
  • The dosage may be adjusted gradually to achieve optimal seizure control while minimizing side effects.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Levetiracetam therapy may include drowsiness, dizziness, headache, fatigue, irritability, nausea, vomiting, and changes in mood or behavior. These side effects are usually mild and transient. However, serious side effects such as allergic reactions or suicidal thoughts may occur rarely.

Precautions

  • Patients taking Fitzloc 750mg Tablet should be closely monitored for changes in mood, behavior, or suicidal ideation, especially during the initial weeks of treatment and following dosage adjustments.
  • Levetiracetam may interact with certain medications, so it’s essential to inform the healthcare provider about all medications being taken.
  • Abrupt discontinuation of Levetiracetam may increase the risk of seizures. Therefore, the dosage should be tapered gradually under medical supervision if discontinuation is necessary.

When Not to Use

Fitzloc 750mg Tablet should not be used in patients with a known hypersensitivity to Levetiracetam or any of its components. It is also contraindicated in patients with severe renal impairment.
