April Learning Lecture: It's Electric: Seizures and the Medications We Use to Treat Them

This lecture, presented by Neurology Technician Courtney Menke, CVT, VTS (ECC), will explain what a seizure is by breaking down its stages and helping you recognize each phase. We will discuss common causes of seizures and the diagnostic processes used to identify underlying issues, including blood work and imaging. You will gain insight into the various medications available for managing seizures, including their mechanisms and potential side effects. Finally, we will cover essential client communication strategies to help you guide pet owners in understanding and managing their pet's condition.
