Summary
IM-midazolam in acute seizures, whenever IV cannulation is not possible. It is easy to administer and can be used in prehospital settings as IV cannulation requires experience, especially in pediatric age group. Moreover, the transit time to the hospital can be prolonged in our areas which can delay the treatment if intravenous cannulation is considered. More studies are required to assess the feasibility of administering IM-midazolam in a prehospital setting to control acute seizures
