Project Details
Description
Currently, higher levels of evidence are needed to characterize whether there are neuropsychiatric adverse effects associated with the use of levetiracetam in adults with epilepsy. For this reason, we will conduct a systematic review evaluating the occurrence of neuropsychiatric symptoms such as anxiety, depression, cognitive dysfunction, memory disorders, irritability, aggressiveness, impulsivity, behavioral disorders, suicidality, daytime sleepiness, and psychosis associated with levetiracetam use in adults with epilepsy without previously diagnosed psychiatric disorders. The search will be conducted in PubMed, Embase and Web of Science. Only clinical trials, observational studies, case reports and case series will be included. Quality assessment will be performed using the JBI critical appraisal tools.
