%X Acute seizure therapies given out of the hospital are important for interrupting acute repetitive and prolonged seizures and preventing hospitalization. These vary in their administration routes, indications for children and adults, pharmacologic profiles, and efficacy. We reviewed and compared the uses of current formulations available to treat acute seizures, including newly released intranasal (IN) benzodiazepines and older formulations which are widely used for interrupting seizures.
