Phenytoin Test Overview
Phenytoin Blood test is performed to determine the concentration of phenytoin in blood with an aim to keep level of the drug within acceptable range.
Phenytoin (known by its brand name, Dilantin/Eptoin) is an anticonvulsant/antiepileptic medicine given to treat or prevent the reappearance of certain types of seizures.
A high concentration may lead to drop in blood pressure, a low concentration might be unsuccessful in preventing seizure, and cause various other side effects.
Levels should be monitored closely in patients with renal failure
Phenytoin is a medication that is typically utilised as an anticonvulsant or antiepileptic medicine and is used to manage seizures. Other brand names for the medication include Dilantin and Eptoin. It functions by limiting the activity of brain stem areas and slowing down brain impulses. Despite the medicine's wide range of therapeutic applications, several side effects and drug interactions limit its use. A low dose may be ineffective in stopping a seizure, whereas a high concentration may cause a drop in blood pressure and other side effects. The test is typically performed to determine the drug's blood level so that the correct dosage can be administered.
