✅ Description:

Indications

Parenteral phenytoin is used to treat generalized tonic-clonic seizures, as well as the prevention and treatment of seizures that occur during neurosurgery. Oral phenytoin can be replaced with intravenous phenytoin for short-term use. When oral phenytoin administration is not possible, parenteral phenytoin should be used.

Pharmacology

Phenytoin works as an anticonvulsant by increasing efflux or decreasing the influx of sodium ions across cell membranes in the motor cortex during nerve impulse generation, thereby stabilizing neuronal membranes and reducing seizure activity. It works as an antiarrhythmic by prolonging the effective refractory period and inhibiting the automaticity of the ventricular pacemaker.

Administration & Dosage

It's best if you take it with food. Do not administer feeds 2 hours before or after a dose to patients on nasogastric or other enteral feeds. Feeding times should be consistent throughout therapy. Switching dosage forms/brands without thinking about it is not a good idea.

Epilepsy: Oral
Adults: Start with 3-4 mg/kg per day in a single dose or divided doses. Alternatively, if necessary, start with 150-300 mg per day and gradually increase to 600 mg per day. 200-500 mg per day for maintenance.
Initially, 5 mg/kg per day, divided into 2-3 doses. 4-8 mg/kg per day in divided doses for maintenance. The maximum daily dose is 300 mg.

 

Interaction

The effects of other sedatives or ethanol may be amplified. Increases the toxicity of paracetamol and lithium. Acetazolamide raises the risk of osteomalacia. Acyclovir, antineoplastics, benzodiazepines, ciprofloxacin, CYP2C9 inducers (e.g. carbamazepine), CYP2C19 inducers (e.g. rifampin), folic acid, and vigabatrin all reduced serum levels/effects.

Contraindications

Patients with a history of hypersensitivity to phenytoin, its inactive ingredients, or other hydantoins should not take phenytoin sodium.
Because of the effect of parenteral phenytoin on ventricular automaticity, sinus bradycardia, sino-atrial block, second and third-degree A-V block, and Adams-Stokes syndrome can occur.
A history of phenytoin-related acute hepatotoxicity in the past.

Side Effect
