Causes and symptoms. The most common cause of pyelonephritis is the backward flow (reflux) of infected urine from the bladder to the upper urinary tract. Bacterial infections also may be carried to one or both kidneys through the bloodstream or lymph glands from infection that began in the bladder.
Diastat is generally well-tolerated. The most common side effect reported during research studies was sleepiness. Since it is given after a seizure, it may be hard to tell if sleepiness is due to the seizure or the medicine.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION. 1  Potentially fatal additive effects (respiratory depression and sedation) may occur if Diastat or Diastat AcuDial is used with opioids. 2  Do not use DIASTAT if you are allergic to diazepam. 3  Do not use DIASTAT if you have an eye condition known as acute narrow angle glaucoma.
