Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My Husband Is On Dilantin Liquid Through His Feeding Tube.
My husband is on Dilantin liquid through his feeding tube. It is normally at a 15-18 level. Last week it dropped to 4 and this week it is now 25. He also takes lamictal. How do we get the levels back safely? The doctor wants to stop the Dilantin for 2 days to lower it. Are their other meds that he can take with lamictal and get off of Dilantin? Lamictal does not work alone for him.
