Get a levetiracetam (Keppra) prescription online.

Maple is a virtual care platform that connects you with doctors and other healthcare providers via text, audio, or video. After you log in to your Maple account, you can request an online consultation.

Consultations work similarly to in-person appointments — the doctor can complete an assessment by asking questions about your symptoms, going through your health history, and determining what treatment is right for you. If they think your condition is more serious, they may tell you to go to a clinic for an in-person examination.

As a Maple member, you get 24/7 access to virtual primary care online and more. You can connect with our network of providers via text, audio, or video call within minutes.

Our membership costs $79.99/month and covers virtual care for patients and their families, including the primary account holder's spouse and any dependents.

For patients in eligible provinces, our membership includes:

• Access to daily primary care provider visits: One daily visit with a primary care provider for each family member in their household.
• Paediatric care: Covered paediatric primary care visits, available by appointment.
• Second medical opinions: access to a network of experts for a second opinion if diagnosed with a complex condition (e.g. cancer).
• Personal Health Check-Ins: A series of personalized, evidence-based proactive care screenings to maintain and improve health.
• iCBT courses: Access to iCBT (internet-based cognitive behavioural therapy) self-assessment and courses.
• Access to specialists in eligible provinces: Easy access to specialists on Maple within days, not months. No referral is needed.
• Specialist referrals in eligible provinces: Ability to be referred to a physician specialist for in-person care, if needed.
• Credit discounts: An $80 credit per month to be applied to a Maple specialist visit.

Please note that our membership cannot be combined with other offerings, such as private insurance coverage and provincial programs, where available. In some cases, membership fees can be covered by a Healthcare Spending Account (HSA) — check with your HSA provider for more details.

We accept all major credit cards, including AMEX cards, as well as Google and Apple Pay.

At Maple, we proudly prioritize privacy as a cornerstone of our virtual care services. We strictly adhere to privacy and healthcare legislation in Canada, such as PIPEDA and PHIPA regulations, to ensure patients' personal and health information remains completely private and safeguarded.

Our policies and consent processes are designed to be simple and easily understood, empowering individuals with control and a clear understanding of their healthcare journey. When using our services, a patient’s session is protected by a comprehensive security infrastructure and stringent data policies.

Patients also retain full control of their personal health information, medical records and test results at all times. Our approach is reinforced by consultations with leading experts, guaranteeing comprehensive policy frameworks that are reviewed at a regular cadence.

All providers delivering healthcare through Maple are licensed in Canada and governed by their licensing regulatory colleges, and in all instances, must act in accordance with the governing principles set out in the telemedicine policies of each medical regulator in the applicable province.

Regulators across Canada support and recognize the value of services like ours, and the way in which they can benefit patients, physicians, and Canada’s broader healthcare system by improving access to care and increasing efficiencies in the delivery of care.

Levetiracetam (Keppra) is a medication belonging to the class of drugs known as anticonvulsants.

A levetiracetam prescription works by affecting the transmission of nerve signals to the brain, which is believed to trigger seizures.

Typically, a Keppra prescription is used to treat and prevent seizures caused by epilepsy.

Sometimes, this medication is used in combination with other antiepileptic medications in order to function most effectively.

A levetiracetam prescription is available as a tablet, a delayed-release tablet, a tablet to be used with an oral suspension liquid, or as a pre-mixed oral suspension liquid. These are all to be taken orally.

Dosage and frequency of use will depend on the severity and frequency of your seizures, as well as recommendations from your doctor based on what other medications, if any, are being used alongside your Keppra prescription.

This medication is usually taken twice daily, with or without food; except for the extended-release tablet, which is typically taken once daily.

Always follow your dosage and frequency of use prescribed by your doctor, because taking more or less than your recommended dosage could increase your risk of negative side effects.

Don’t stop taking your levetiracetam prescription without first consulting with your doctor. Abruptly stopping this medication, without gradually decreasing dosage, could cause seizures to worsen.

There are some symptoms which may appear during the first 4 weeks of taking a levetiracetam prescription, including:

• Weakness
• Drowsiness
• Unusual fatigue
• Dizziness
• Decrease in appetite

These symptoms should lessen or stop as your body adjusts to the medication.

You should consult your doctor immediately if you begin to experience:

• Signs of anemia (severe fatigue, pale skin, increased heart rate or breathing patterns, increased bruising or bleeding)
• Severe mood swings
• Signs of infection (fever, persistent sore throat, chills)
• Loss of coordination
• Signs of depression

If you’ve ever had kidney disease or a history of mental issues (depression, suicidal thoughts) you could be at a high risk for additional negative side effects.
