Levetiracetam (Cezarius) is an antiepileptic drug used to treat various types of seizures. Compared to some other anti-seizure drugs, weight gain is not a typical and commonly reported side effect of levetiracetam. In fact, some people may experience weight loss while using it. The most common side effects of levetiracetam are fatigue, dizziness, headache, nervousness, irritability, and trouble concentrating.
If your daughter notices unexpected changes in weight while taking levetiracetam, it is worth consulting a doctor. They can help identify the cause of these changes and, if necessary, adjust the treatment plan or recommend other remedies.
