Study Summary

To study how the body absorbs, distributes, metabolises and eliminates Keppra XR in both children (12 to 16 years old) and adults (18 to 55 years old) with epilepsy.

Primary Outcome

The Cmax is the maximum plasma concentration normalized by dose and by body weight and dose. Cmax normalized by 1000 mg dose was calculated as: Cmax/(mg dose taken/ 1000 mg Keppra XR). Cmax normalized by body weight and dose (1 mg Keppra XR/kg) was calculated as: Cmax/(bodyweight (kg)/ mg dose Keppra XR taken). Pharmacokonetic (PK) samples were taken predose and 1h, 2.5h, 4h, 6h and 10h after study medication at day 4, 5, 6 or 7 of Keppra XR administration.
