How long will the after effects of a grand mal seizure last if low drug level?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Grand Mal Seizure: Grand mal seizure if not prolonged i.e. Less than 60 seconds will not have any long term sequelae. Status epilepticus (seizures that last greater than 5 minutes) are associated with greater morbidity, and by extension... Mortality.
