[quote=Anonymous]First, i am so sorry - a grand mal seizure is so scary. I had a dog that suffered from seizures most from an accident when he suffered a head injury. He was put on an older anti-seizure drug (potassium bromide) after not doing as well on others. The drug was something I just squirted on his food and he did great on it for many years with very few seizures. I also received some diazepam in liquid form that could be used to stop a grand mal. Other advice is to give him a little bit of vanilla ice cream after he seems conscience from a seizure. This will help bring his blood sugar back to normal. Certain drugs lower the seizure threshold including Heartguard and some Vaccinations. One thing to remember is that the seizure is more upsetting for you than him. He doesn't know what happened and is just confused afterward. Hope he feels better soon! [/quote]
