Özet
Introduction: Levetiracetam is indicated as monotherapy in the treatment of partial onset seizures. Levetiracetam overdose has many neurological and psychiatric issues, but rarely cardiovascular toxicity. We report a large ingestion of levetiracetam drug in the patient with Bonsai addiction that resulted in arrhythmia and Myocard Infarct (MI).
