(S)-2-(2-Oxopyrrolidin-1-yl)butanamide is an anticonvulsant medication used to treat epilepsy. It is the S-enantiomer of etiracetam, structurally similar to the prototypical nootropic drug piracetam.

Levetiracetam inhibits high-voltage-activated calcium channels and reduces calcium release from intraneural stores[1]
