FYI, All antiemetics lower what is referred to as the "seizure threshold", the likelihood that a vulnerable individual will suffer a seizure. In young children, seizures are likely to occur in the context of a febrile illness. Any antiemetic in the presence of fever or dehydration or in the context of other risk factors, e.g. a family history of epilepsy, could aid in triggering a seizure. Absent any other risk factors, the antiemetic alone would not be sufficient to cause a seizure.

Thanks for that info -- she was dehydrated so she was a prime candidate for this to happen. Kind of scarey when you don't realize what could happen when medicines are administered in an emergency situtation.

Know one thing -- this has taught me to ask all kinds of questions on medication and their side effects that is given to my family.
