Abstract
The possible influence of sucralfate on phenytoin absorption was investigated in a double-blind, placebo controlled study. Concomitant administration of 1 g sucralfate reduced the absorption of 300 mg phenytoin capsules by 20% as measured by the area under the curve from 0-48 h. This could be of significance in epileptic patients stabilised on phenytoin in whom sucralfate is used in ulcer treatment.
