What Causes Dizziness And Tightness On The Neck While On Dilantin?

1. Does dilantin 400 mg a day, reduce the effective amount of time that xanax xr would provide its benefit. A 2 mg tab seems to run its course, (start getting dizzy again and other symptoms - tightness in neck from shoulder to bone behind left ear? 2. Xanax script is for 2 1 mg tabs a day (assume that means every 12 hours)?
