As long as you continue using it, this medication merely controls seizures; it cannot treat epilepsy. Persons with epilepsy aged 4 years and older continue to develop seizures while using various anti-seizure drugs to treat and prevent partial-onset seizures.

FAQ
What is the therapeutic class of brivaracetam?
Brivaracetam is an anticonvulsant used to treat partial-onset seizures. It works by attaching to the brain’s SV2A synaptic vesicle glycoprotein.
What is brivaracetam used for in psychiatry?
Comparing the incidence of depression and violence after BRV therapy to all prior patient group trials, a greater incidence was reported. However, in epileptic patients with mental comorbidities, BRV medication was demonstrated to lessen the aggressive and depressed symptoms connected to prior LEV treatment.
What is the mechanism of action of brivaracetam?
Brivaracetam’s specific mode of action is uncertain, however, it is thought that its anticonvulsant properties result from its extremely selective affinity for synaptic vesicle protein 2A (SV2A) in the brain. A protein-coding gene called SV2A glycoprotein is connected to synaptic signal transmission.
