Cimetidine Meperidine

Phenytoin interacts widi many different drugp. For example isoniazid, chloramphenicol, sulfonamides, benzodiazepines, succinimides, and cimetidine all increase phenytoin blood levels. The barbiturates, rifampin, theophylline, and warfarin decrease phenytoin blood levels. When administering the hydantoins with meperidine, die analgesic effect of meperidine is decreased.
