ABSTRACT

We present two pediatric cases of levetiracetam overdose. The first case was a 3-year-old girl who was, by her family, accidentally given levetiracetam at 115 mg/kg/day for one-month duration. The second case, a 3-month-old girl who accidentally used 300 mg/kg/day dose about one month. We didn’t observe remarkable severe side effects in our patients.
