AWMSG advice
Midazolam (BUCCOLAM®) is recommended as an option for use within NHS Wales for the treatment of prolonged, acute, convulsive seizures in infants, toddlers, children and adolescents (from 3 months to < 18 years). For infants between 3–6 months of age treatment should be in a hospital setting where monitoring is possible and resuscitation equipment is available.
Midazolam (BUCCOLAM®) should be prescribed by brand name to reduce the risk of medication errors.
