Febrile seizures are quite common, affecting about 2 to 5% of young children, and most outgrow them by age 5 or 6. Frisium (clobazam) helps prevent these, with common side effects being sleepiness or mild coordination changes. Since dosing is based on weight rather than just age, please consult her pediatrician before making any changes. They can safely guide you on adjusting or eventually stopping the medication as she continues to grow.
