Consideration
Sedating agents (diazepam or lorazepam) as a form of chemical
restraint to calm the patient should be avoided. These agents will
prolong the postictal (after the seizure) state of confusion & may
induce respiratory depression
• The pulse and blood pressure usually rise significantly during a
convulsive seizure, but return to normal quickly after the end of
the seizure and usually do not require treatment
