One interesting fact about Dilantin is that it was one of the first medications specifically developed for the treatment of epilepsy. Phenytoin was first synthesized in 1908, and its anti-seizure properties were discovered in the 1930s. It was introduced as a medication for epilepsy in the 1940s and has since become one of the most widely used AEDs. Dilantin works by stabilizing the electrical activity in the brain, specifically by inhibiting the spread of abnormal electrical activity that can trigger seizures. It is classified as a sodium channel blocker, meaning it reduces the influx of sodium ions into nerve cells, which can help prevent the excessive firing of neurons that can lead to seizures.

Dilantin (Phenytoin) is an anticonvulsant. It works by stabilizing the threshold in the brain that controls excessive excitability caused by overstimulation. Generic Dilantin is one of Pfizer's best-selling and most popular medications. Dilantin has been effective in controlling a variety of seizure types, including focal seizures (previously known as partial seizures), generalized tonic-clonic seizures (previously known as grand mal seizures), and other types of seizures. It is available in various formulations, including extended-release capsules and chewable tablets, to accommodate different dosing requirements. Dilantin has been a significant milestone in the management of epilepsy, providing relief and seizure control for millions of individuals with epilepsy worldwide. Its discovery and development have paved the way for further research and innovation in the field of epilepsy treatment, leading to the development of other AEDs with improved safety and efficacy profiles.

Dilantin may also be marketed in the US, Canada, Europe and Asia as: Phenytoin sodium, generic Dilantin, Phenytek, Eptoin and Promptm Di-Phen. Other medications for epilepsy treatment available at our online store are: Topamax and Lamictal.
