Brief Summary   Traumatic brain injury is one of the leading causes of death and disability through out the world .Occurance of seizures can worsen the outcome in these patients. Though TBI guidelines advocate the use of phenytoin for early onset seizures in TBI, there is emerging evidence that the use of the broad spectrum drugs as leveteracitam may be helpful in ameliorating the seizures in the early postoperative period .This pilot study is being done to compare phenytoin with levetiracetam for prophylaxis of seizures in TBI patients.
