Phenytoin (TDM) (IA0133)

Description

Phenytoin (TDM) is a blood test used to measure the concentration of phenytoin in the bloodstream to ensure effective and safe seizure control. Therapeutic drug monitoring is essential because phenytoin has a narrow therapeutic range and non-linear pharmacokinetics. This test helps guide dose adjustments, assess treatment adherence, prevent toxicity, and optimize therapy in patients with epilepsy or seizure disorders.
