Description

Biochem/physiol Actions

Brivaracetam shows approximately 10 times greater potency than levetiracetam (Keppra)*; pIC50 at LBS = 7.0; inhibits audiogenic seizures in seizure-prone mice (ED50 = 14 μmol/kg) and is also effective in other animal models of epilepsy. Brivaracetam is used as an anticonvulsant (antiepileptic) for seizure treatment.
