- Abrupt discontinuation of treatment should be avoided in myoclonic patients as this may induce sudden relapse or withdrawal seizures.
- As Piracetam is almost exclusively eliminated by the kidney, precautions should be taken when treating patients suffering from renal insufficiency and in whom it is wise to check the renal function. The half-life time is increased in direct proportion to loss of renal function and the creatinine clearance; this is equally true in elderly patients, in whom the excretion of creatinine is dependent on age.

| Normal | >80 | Usually daily dose, 2-4 divided doses |
| Mild | 50-79 | 2/3 usual daily dose. 2 or 3 divided doses |
