Brief Answer: My reply is below. Detailed Answer: Hi, Thank you for posting your query. First of all, I would like to reassure you that 3-4 grams of levipil (levetiracetam) is safe and it would not lead to any adverse effects. She should skip the next two doses (night and next morning) and then, can restart her usual schedule of levipil. I hope my answer helps.
