Is it wrong to drink alcohol when a person suffers from a seizure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stay away from it: seizures are serious neurological conditions that need to be attended right away. depending on the type and underline cause of seizure, treatment varies. Alcohol has not been used as a treatment by convention. In fact, withdrawal from alcohol is one of the known causes of seizures.
