Listen Later

When every second counts, speed matters. But how fast is too fast when it comes to giving intravenous antiseizure medications? In this episode, we dive into the latest research on rapid administration of lacosamide, levetiracetam, and valproate. From intravenous push to piggyback infusions, we break down what the data says about safety, side effects, and real-world efficiency. Join us as we explore how faster medication delivery could reshape emergency seizure care and what hospitals need to consider before making the switch.
