Most Common Causes of Seizures
Seizures in animals have two major causes — extracranial and intracranial:
Extracranial
Extracranial causes of seizures originate in parts of the body outside the brain. However, they can still affect the brain and cause seizure activity.
The most common causes include:
- Hypoglycemia •
- Hypocalcemia •
- Hyperthermia •
- Hypothyroidism •
- Liver disease •
- Ingested poisons, i.e., caffeine, chocolate, etc. •
Intracranial
Intracranial causes of seizures are diseases that cause either structural or functional changes inside the animal’s brain.
The most common causes include:
- Epilepsy •
- Trauma to the brain •
- Tumors •
- Nutritional imbalances •
- Autoimmune disease •
- Infectious diseases •

Explore our veterinary seizure treatments and their various administration options now:
Seizure Treatments
Levetiracetam

Phenobarbital
This drug inhibits seizures by controlling the abnormal electrical activity in the brain that occurs during a seizure.

Administration Options
- Liquid •
- Capsules •
- Transdermal Gel •
- Suppositories •
- Injectables •
Seizure Treatments
Potassium Bromide
This drug works by competing with chloride ions for access to brain tissues. As potassium bromide levels in the brain rise and chloride levels drop, electrical activity in the central nervous system is inhibited. This makes the initiation of a seizure more difficult.
Administration Options
- Liquid •
- Capsules •
Zonisamide
This medication is used in combination with other medications to treat certain types of seizures by decreasing abnormal electrical activity in the brain.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is compounding and why is it beneficial over medication that’s commercially available?
Commercially available medications are often limited in the dosages, flavors and forms offered. That can be a problem for animals that get anxious when having to get an injection, that gag or vomit up pills or that lick up their topical medication in seconds.
That’s why caretakers need options. Veterinary compounding is the process of combining, mixing or altering ingredients to create a custom medication that’s tailored to meet the needs of an individual animal. Whether an animal requires a specific dosage, form (oral, topical, injectable, etc.) or ingredient that isn’t commercially available, compounding is a way to help ensure treatment can be administered easily and effectively every time.
