| Add Phenytek review I had to take many different capsules a day now it is just two at bed. I believe it is much easier to remember to take and it helps a whole lot! I got to where Diltin and the doctor put me on this drug and every since it's the best every Easy to remember only once a day. I feel better on this drug. I can tell I am more alert and things I do on a daily basis are easier done. | Add Phenytoin review I am currently enrolled in a methadone program and this drug, phenytoin, (dilantin) metabolizes(burns off) the methadone sooner than normal. I'm experiencing the unmistakable feelings of whithdrawal now where before there had been none. I dose at the clinic when the doors open at 6 am. By that evening, 8:00pm or so, I feel the "jones" or withdrawal start. Most common, irritablility, aggitation, cold sweats, and anxiety for my next dose are what I've been experiencing these past few days. It is uncomfortable and annoying to say the least but I continue to take it to satisfy my girlfriend. She is convinced that I'll have another episode(siezeure) if I stop taking the dilantin. I mean, it concernes me also, but the feelings of early withdrawal do suck. I'm currently looking into antother medication(Zonisamide)that claimes to not affect the methadone level. We will see. | |||
