Seizure Treatment

• During and after the seizure, attempt to keep the person on his or her side to allow fluid to drain from the mouth.



• If the person falls, immobilize the head and neck. Beware of vomiting and turn the person to his or her side to prevent the inhalation of vomit into the lungs.



• After the seizure stops, allow the person to rest. A seizure often causes confusion and drowsiness for a period of minutes to hours.
