Key Words Levetiracetam; Phenobarbitone; Neonates; Seizures
Core Tip Neonatal seizures are common, but there is lack of evidence to support use of anticonvulsants in this group of patients. Phenobarbitone remains the first line of treatment despite its limitations. The current study aims to review our experience of using levetiracetam (LEV) in management of neonatal seizures and to compare with the experience reported in the literature. We find that LEV is a relatively safe and feasible treatment option. Difficulties in performing studies were also discussed with the latest report of using bumetanide for treatment of neonatal seizures.
