Decision Making for Seizure Drug Selection

Choosing the right antiseizure medication can be challenging, especially when balancing seizure control with patient comorbidities, medication side effects, and client resources. This session will walk practitioners through a practical, case-based approach to seizure drug selection in dogs and cats, focusing on how to tailor therapy based on seizure type, frequency, patient age, liver and kidney function, and owner capabilities, as well as other patient and client based contextual factors that affect decision making. Attendees will leave with a more structured framework for selecting and adjusting seizure medications in general practice.
