Does etomidate cause seizures?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Etomidate&seizures: Yes there has been reports of seizures--but the answer is usually much more complex only a few people will get seizures, while most people will not get seizures, so other factors play a role.

Not really: But myoclonus is relatively common. The mild muscle jerks could be mistaken as seizure activity.
