A 34 years old woman had a convulsive seizure about 7 months after introduction of hemodialysis(HD), and convulsive seizure disappeared when Levetiracetam was administered. For the purpose of preventing dialysis amyloidosis, we changed from HD to on-line hemodiafiltration(on-line HDF), but after the change there was a strong appeal of drowsiness. Since the symptoms of strong drowsiness could not be taken, treatment was restored from on-line HDF to HD and the symptoms improved, so the possibility that Levetiracetam removal was less in on-line HDF than HD was suspected to have accumulated.
