Youkai don't just naturally fall unconscious after being possessed, it happens as a result of Mizuchi draining them of energy before she leaves. So if she doesn't do that (because she's in a hurry or bad shape or something, I guess), they're fine immediately after just like any human would be.
(Presumably she can drain magical energy from humans too, but they don't care so much because unlike youkai, their bodies don't literally run on it.)
