PHENYTOIN / DILANTIN / EPTOIN

The Phenytoin (also known as Dilantin or Eptoin) test measures the level of phenytoin, a medication used to control seizures in epilepsy. Monitoring these levels helps ensure the drug is within the therapeutic range—high enough to prevent seizures but not so high that it causes side effects like dizziness, confusion, or nausea. This test is useful for adjusting dosage, checking compliance and avoiding toxicity.
