Don't take it on an empty stomach! Don't take it and go to bed!! In either case you will experience heart burn like you've never had before!!

I have a seizure disorder. Ever since my neurologist changed my medicine from dilantin to phenytek, I have felt much better. Its great because one dose a day is very easy to remember & keep up with.

I had to take many different capsules a day now it is just two at bed. I believe it is much easier to remember to take and it helps a whole lot!

this stuff is great. I have experienced some bad seizures and they were becoming more frequent until I got on Phenytek. Although seizures still occur, they occur less frequently, I can hardly feel the seizure and the only "side-effect" that I have is me shaking from me being nervous.

Easy to remember only once a day. I feel better on this drug. I can tell I am more alert and things I do on a daily basis are easier done.
