What Does Foaming From The Mouth Along With Body Tremors Indicate?

So yesterday my husband was found in his bedroom foaming from his mouth and shaking. I know he has a history of blood pressure recently diagnosed and also, he is allergic to bruphen and aspirin. The hospital has referred him for a CT Scan and they are about to put him on these injections, IV, and medications. Thorazine 2ml 50mg, Nifecard so Tabs 30mg, IV Labetalol 20mg qid*24hrs, IV phenytoin 600mg 8T, Then 100mg 8hrly*24hrs. So what do you think or suggest. This is his first episode of such sickness.

Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.com.

I had gone through your question I can understand your concern about your husband.

The suggestive history, of fit and foaming with loss of consciousness is epileptic fit. As the medicine prescribed is concerned is related to reduce the brain hyper activety and stabilize the blood pressure.

So the reason behind the condition of your husband is epilepsy and reasons will be conveyed to after the full diagnostics is like.

You need CT/MRI and EEG investigation to be done for the reason behind, clinically it was a fit and you don't need to worry too much.
Hope your query is answered. Write to us if you have any other questions.

Regards
