Has anyone given young children Levetiracetam Accord as monotherapy?

The leaflet of Levetiracetam does not state that it cannot be used alone, i.e. as the only medicine, but introduces an age limit for use as monotherapy in the treatment of partial or partial secondary generalised seizures in adults and adolescents from 16 years of age with newly diagnosed epilepsy. It can also be used as adjunctive therapy to treat partial or partial secondary generalised seizures in adults, adolescents, children and infants from 1 month of age with epilepsy, to treat myoclonic seizures in adults and adolescents from 12 years of age with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy, to treat tonic-clonic seizures initially generalised in adults and adolescents from 12 years of age with generalised idiopathic epilepsy. This does not mean that the drug is absolutely can not be used in younger children, but the efficacy and safety of levetiracetam monotherapy in children and adolescents under 16 years of age have not been established. In practice, this means that there are no sufficiently large studies, which means that the manufacturer of the drug must include an appropriate warning in the leaflet. However, the doctor may - based on his best knowledge and experience - prescribe a drug in a different way than described in the documentation. This is common for the youngest patients, as other therapeutic options are often not available for this age group. If you feel concerned about the therapy ordered, it is best to talk about it directly with a neurologist.
