Individual Participant Data (IPD) Sharing Statement

Will individual participant data (IPD) be shared publicly (including data dictionaries)?  

Brief Summary   Levetiracetam is a second line anti epileptic drug. In the last few years, its use has expanded considerably. However, very few centres estimate blood levels to individualize drug therapy in patients with epilepsy. Hence this study was planned to set up and validate a HPLC method for estimation of Levetiracetam and subsequently use Therapeutic Drug Monitoring to individualize treatment
