Management
Potentially sharp or dangerous objects should also be moved from the vicinity, so that the individual is not hurt. After the seizure if the person is not fully conscious and alert, they should be placed in the recovery position.
A seizure longer than five minutes is a medical emergency. Caregivers may carry medicine.
