When checking interaction based on authoritative sources Drugs.com, Rxlist.com, Webmd.com, Medscape.com there are contraindications or side effects that may cause harm or increase the negative effect from drug use in presence of concomitant diseases.

Consumer:

The use of levetiracetam may be associated with minor decreases in total red blood cell count, hemoglobin, and hematocrit. Possibly significant decreases in white blood cell and neutrophil counts may also occur infrequently, although these changes may return to normal despite continued treatment. Therapy with levetiracetam should be administered cautiously in patients with or predisposed to anemia or neutropenia.
