Risk factors of early adverse drug reactions with phenytoin: A prospective inpatient cohort

Conclusions Phenytoin is a widely used AED associated with easily detectable ADR through structured pharmacovigilance. The development of ADR is associated with longer hospital stays. Recognition of local risk factors may lead to ADR prevention in a near future. Larger studies are needed to better define PHT-related ADR risk profile and to individualize treatment regimens.
