KBr adjunct treatment flow diagram for decision making during seizure management in an otherwise healthy dog. *Criteria for (in)adequate seizure control with regard to efficacy and tolerability (see Consensus proposal: Outcome of therapeutic interventions in canine and feline epilepsy [94]). 1. Treatment efficacious: a: Achievement of complete treatment success (i.e. seizure freedom or extension of the interseizure interval to three times the longest pretreatment interseizure interval and for a minimum of three months (ideally > 1 year), b: Achievement of partial treatment success (i.e. a reduction in seizure frequency including information on seizure incidence (usually at least 50 % or more reduction defines a drug responder), a reduction in seizure severity, or a reduction in frequency of seizure clusters and/or status epilepticus). 2. Treatment not tolerated i.e. appearance of severe adverse effects necessitating discontinuation of the AED
