Seizures are not a common symptom in influenza, however, they can accompany a high fever, such as often occurs with the flu. These are called febrile seizures. Children are most vulnerable to febrile seizures. However, do not assume this is just a symptom of the flu if there are seizures, all seizures should be evaluated immediately by a physician to determine the type, cause, and need for treatment.
