Abrupt discontinuation of levetiracetam (e.g. Vetira) or too rapid dose reduction may increase the frequency of seizures. Discontinuation of the drug should be carried out under the supervision of a doctor and in accordance with his recommendations. If the doctor has not determined how to end the treatment, I encourage you to repeat the consultation or use the teleadvice offered, m.in. by the Gdziepolek.pl portal: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja I enclose a link to check the availability of Vetira and make a reservation at the selected pharmacy: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/82261/vetira-tabletki-powlekane/apteki I encourage you to read our additional study, which may be useful: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/czy-jak-i-kiedy-mozna-odstawic-leki
