Abstract
Hair loss is a known complication observed with the intake of many medications including a few antiepileptic drugs. We report, in this article, a 13-year-old girl with epilepsy who developed hair loss, which was noted within 2 months of starting levetiracetam. To our knowledge, this is the first case report of hair loss induced by levetiracetam in this age group.
