About

Phenytoin Sodium Injection is an anticonvulsant medication primarily used to control and prevent seizures, especially in conditions like epilepsy and status epilepticus (a life-threatening seizure emergency). It works by stabilizing neuronal membranes and reducing abnormal electrical activity in the brain. This injection is often used when oral administration is not feasible or in acute situations requiring rapid seizure control. Additionally, it can be prescribed to prevent seizures during or after neurosurgery or traumatic brain injury. Administered intravenously by healthcare professionals, the dosage depends on individual needs and medical conditions. Close monitoring is essential to avoid side effects and toxicity.
