Abstract We report a retrospective case study of the use of clomethiazole for treatment of non‐convulsive status epilepticus in a patient not responding to benzodiazepines, illustrated by EEG and video. Clomethiazole can be considered as a safe oral option for management of non‐convulsive status epilepticus when conventional treatment has failed. [ Published with video sequences online ]
