Product Overview

About DILANTIN INFATABS

DILANTIN INFATABS are an oral medication used to treat and control seizures in patients with epilepsy. This medication is available in a convenient, dissolvable tablet form, making it easy to administer, especially for children and individuals who have difficulty swallowing traditional tablets or capsules.

Key Benefits & Uses

• Treatment and control of seizures in patients with epilepsy
• Management of tonic-clonic (grand mal) and complex partial (psychomotor, temporal lobe) seizures
• Prevention of seizures during and after brain surgery
• Management of seizures associated with brain tumors

Active Ingredient & Action

The active ingredient in DILANTIN INFATABS is PHENYTOIN, a hydantoin derivative that acts as an anticonvulsant. PHENYTOIN works by stabilizing the threshold against hyperexcitability caused by excessive stimulation and by reducing post-tetanic potentiation at synapses of motor neurons.

Important Notes

Before taking DILANTIN INFATABS, it is essential to discuss your medical history, including any allergies or sensitivities, with your doctor. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as PHENYTOIN may affect fetal development or infant health. Regular blood tests are necessary to monitor your liver function and blood cell counts while taking this medication.

Store DILANTIN INFATABS in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep this medication out of reach of children and pets. Do not use DILANTIN INFATABS if you have a history of liver disease or if you are taking other medications that may interact with PHENYTOIN.
