Aptiom (eslicarbazepine) is a once-daily oral seizure medicine (anticonvulsant) used alone or with other medicines to treat focal seizures (formerly called partial seizures). Keppra (levetiracetam) is an oral seizure medicine used to treat focal seizures, but is additionally approved to treat myoclonic seizures and tonic-clonic seizures. It is usually given twice a day. Both prescription treatments are used to treat adults and children of various ages with epilepsy.
