Do you own a Kakapo parakeet that has been diagnosed with seizures? If so, talk with your vet to learn more about treatments, medication regimens and even long term care for your bird. Seizure activity is common in some birds including parakeets like the Kakapo. They can occur frequently or rarely. Your bird’s treatment will most likely depend on the severity of the seizure activity and your bird’s overall health. For instance, the first step in treating seizures is to find the cause. If your bird has seizures because of a genetic disorder then treatment for the seizures will most likely be administered. However, if there is an underlying illness causing the seizures, your vet may choose to treat that illness first. Treating the illness could also treat the seizures if they are related. Treatments can be provided in the form of medication. Talk with your veterinarian Cameron Park, CA to learn more or click here.
