Management of generalised convulsive status epilepticus (SE): A prospective randomised controlled study of combined treatment with intravenous lorazepam with either phenytoin, sodium valproate or levetiracetam - Pilot study

Phenytoin, valproate, and levetiracetam are safe and equally efficacious following lorazepam in GCSE. The choice of AEDs could be individualised based on co-morbidities. SE could be controlled in 92% of patients with AEDs only and anaesthetics were not required in them.
