Keppra gets a bad rap because some of the earliest side effect reports. They ranged from worsened depression, to hallucinations and straight out psychosis. Because of this early reputation for psychiatric side effects, most doctors shied away from using it as treatment for psychiatric disorders. Its a shame really, because studies have shown it can work well as a mood stabilizer, anxiolytic and OCD treatment. So, yeah, I think its underutilized, definitely.
