Hope this helps:) My DD started to have febrile fits when she was 6 m.o. Afterwards she had 7 more in 3 yrs time bc usually she had fits first, then fever, so it's impossible to prevent. In some cases like my DD, fits can be dangerous bc during those times they stop breathing (face turned grey/blue). I consulted 3 paediatrician neurologists (all professors) and the recommendation was the same, she should be given Valproic Acid daily for 2 yrs. But since she can hv fits with 38 degree fever, she's usually prescribed with Stesolid syrup if she reaches that temperature. I think Valproic Acid is a helpful drug and now my DD is 6.5 and looks like she's grown out of it. Yay! Thank God!Another thing, although most people stop having fits around 7 yr old, my DH had his last fit when he was 10. So always be careful, I guess
