If my 20-month-old baby vomited her morning doses of Valparin, Topomac, and Frisium 15 minutes after taking them and we did not repeat the dose, is she at risk of having a seizure, and what should we do?
It is completely understandable to feel worried. Since your baby vomited just 15 minutes after taking her Valparin (sodium valproate), Topomac (topiramate), and Frisium (clobazam), some of the medication may not have been fully absorbed, which can slightly increase her risk of a seizure. Please do not repeat the doses on your own, as this could lead to an accidental overdose. Instead, contact her pediatrician or pediatric neurologist immediately for specific instructions on redosing. In the meantime, keep a close, calm eye on her. If she does have a seizure, gently turn her onto her side, clear her surroundings, and seek emergency medical care right away. You are doing a wonderful job caring for her.
