			==Mechanism of action==
			Seletracetam's anti-epileptic effects are due to its high affinity binding to synaptic vesicle glycoprotein 2A (])<ref name=Malykh /><ref name="Bennett" /><ref name=Pollard />—part of a ] regulator.

			The dual effect of seletracetam is an overall decrease in the amount of ] influx in the cell during an ] due to binding at ], which prevents over-excitation of the ], as well as a decrease in ] release as a product of cellular excitation due to the interaction of the drug with ], which reduces the spread of excitation to nearby cells.<ref name=Custer>{{cite journal | vauthors = Custer KL, Austin NS, Sullivan JM, Bajjalieh SM | title = Synaptic vesicle protein 2 enhances release probability at quiescent synapses | journal = The Journal of Neuroscience | volume = 26 | issue = 4 | pages = 1303–1313 | date = January 2006 | pmid = 16436618 | pmc = 6674579 | doi = 10.1523/JNEUROSCI.2699-05.2006 | doi-access = free }}</ref>

			The oral ] of seletracetam is >90%<ref name="Bennett" /> and its ] is approximately 8 hours.<ref name=Malykh /><ref name="Bennett" /> 25% of ingested seletracetam is metabolized and excreted unchanged and about 53% is excreted in the form of an inactive ] metabolite.<ref name=Bialer /><ref name=Luszcki /> The main metabolic mechanism is the hydrolysis of an ] to a ].<ref name=Luszcki /><ref name=Strolin>{{cite journal | vauthors = Strolin Benedetti M, Whomsley R, Nicolas JM, Young C, Baltes E | title = Pharmacokinetics and metabolism of 14C-levetiracetam, a new antiepileptic agent, in healthy volunteers | journal = European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology | volume = 59 | issue = 8–9 | pages = 621–630 | date = November 2003 | pmid = 14530892 | doi = 10.1007/s00228-003-0655-6 | s2cid = 25017909 }}</ref>
			Seletracetam exhibits ] mono-compartmental ], in which there is a simple linear relationship between the amount of drug that was administered, the time that has passed, and the amount of drug subsequently remaining in the body.<ref name="Bennett" /> This contrasts the nonlinear pharmacokinetics typical of previously available ] such as ], phenytolin, ] and ].<ref name="Bennett" /> The benefit of linear kinetics is that the steady-state concentration of the drug is directly and reliably related to the dose of the drug that is administered; this allows for simple and reliable dose adjustments.
