6. What is the purpose and timing of serum drug levels
small changes in dosage produce large changes in plasma levels, as a result small

this relationship makes it difficult to establish and maintain a dotage that is both safe and
effective. for this reason, scrum drug levels and trough levels ate often used along with
assessments of seizure control to determine dosage.
7. Phenytoin drug interactions
Oxcarbazepine, Inhibits the enzymes that metabolize phenytoin thus raising phenytoin.
Controversially phenytoin may decrease serum concentration of oxcerbazepine
8. What can happen when you take phenytoin and oxcarbazepine together
