Focal seizure affect particular parts of the brain. During Focal seizures, a person will be affected both physically and emotionally. During generalized or Tonic-Clonic seizures, the body stiffens, jerks, shakes, and the patient will lose consciousness. It will last up to 1-3 minutes. Before an episode of it, the person feels confused, sleepy and weak. The Diazepam is the injection which is usually given to the person affected by the condition. When a person has a long duration of any seizure, then the patient should be given injection by drips. Vitamin B6 is suitable for childhood epilepsy.
