What should be done when a child has a seizure?

Patient's question:

Last October at 4 p.m., I had my first seizure—while I was taking Lamotrigine and Binghong Maohe.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the main first aid measures during a seizure are as follows: For the care of grand mal seizures, the first step is to protect the tongue. Before the seizure begins, place a tongue depressor wrapped in gauze between the patient's upper and lower molars to prevent tongue biting. If it is not placed before the onset, insert it during the tonic phase when the patient's mouth is open. Do not force it during the clonic phase to avoid injuring the patient.
