Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

I can recommend you to measure her body temperature because a high temperature can cause it. In this case give her advil.
I can recommend you to give another tablet of temazepam to relax jerking.
If it still doesn't get better seek medical attention soon.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
