Hi,

Thank you for your query.

One can have behavioural changes following a seizure which usually disappears over time. This is not related to the medication being received by your daughter.

I am not aware of any ayurvedic remedy for febrile convulsions.

I hope I have answered your query to your satisfaction.

Wishing your daughter an early recovery.

Regards,

in my opinion you should try keeping the temperature of your child in lower limits during the illness, since very high temperature can lead to the seizures. You can do that by sponging by tap water and giving anti pyretics
