  • Title: A case of levetiracetam-induced thrombocytopenia.
    Author: Oghlakian R, Nock C, Koubeissi M.
    Journal: Epileptic Disord; 2010 Dec; 12(4):335-7. PubMed ID: 21078583.
    Abstract:
    Rare cases of levetiracetam-induced thrombocytopenia have been reported in the literature. We report a case of glioblastoma multiforme and partial epilepsy treated with levetiracetam with subsequent development of thrombocytopenia. After ruling out all other possible causes of a decreased platelet count, we conclude that levetiracetam was the cause of this adverse event.
