Tablet Eptoin contains Phenytoin. It is used for control and prevention of seizures/epilepsy. Generally it is safe. But it has few side effects on long term use- ataxia, nystagmus, gum hyperplasia, glucose intolerance, cerebellar degeneration, alter metabolism of other medicine which are primarily metabolized by liver. It need to be taken under supervision of a neurologist. Nerve injury in brain can be minor or major- depends on size and site of injury. duration of eptoin is based on status of seizure control and it varies from patient consition.
