Prepare a Plan for an Adult
This Seizure Preparedness Plan has been especially designed for adults with
epilepsy and
seizure disorders. It allows caregivers, friends, and loved ones to respond quickly to treat your
breakthrough seizure, minimize disruption to your routine, and potentially eliminate emergency room visits.
To help you live life with less fear and uncertainty, work with your healthcare provider to create a Personalized Seizure Preparedness Plan and ask about completing your plan with DIASTAT
® AcuDial™ (diazepam rectal gel).
