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.

Drugs that may affect repaglinide include CYP 450 inhibitors (eg, clarithromycin, erythromycin, ketoconazole, miconazole), CYP 450 inducers (eg, barbiturates, carbamazepine, rifampin), beta blockers, calcium channel blockers, chloramphenicol, corticosteroids, coumarins, estrogens, gemfibrozil, isoniazid, itraconazole, levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol, MAOIs, nicotinic acid, NSAIDs, oral contraceptives, phenothiazines, phenytoin, probenecid, salicylates, simvastatin, sulfonamides, sympathomimetics, thiazides and other diuretics, and thyroid products. 

Certain drugs tend to produce hyperglycemia and may lead to loss of blood glucose control. These drugs include the thiazides and other diuretics, corticosteroids, phenothiazines, thyroid products, estrogens, oral contraceptives, phenytoin, nicotinic acid, sympathomimetics, calcium channel blocking drugs, and isoniazid. 

Drugs that may interact with zalcitabine include antacids, chloramphenicol, cisplatin, dapsone, didanosine, disulfiram, ethionamide, glutethimide, gold, hydralazine, iodoquinol, isoniazid, metronidazole, nitrofurantoin, phenytoin, ribavirin, vincristine, cimetidine, metoclopramide, amphotericin, aminoglycosides, foscarnet, antiretroviral nucleoside analogs, pentamidine, and probenecid.

Folate deficiency can be dietary, especially in the eiderly, due to increased demand like in pregnancy, or due to maiabsorption syndromes. Agents which can cause folic acid deficiency with long-term use include phenytoin, oral contraceptives, isoniazid and glucocorticosteroids. In rare instances the use of dihydrofolate reductase inhibitors like trimethoprim, methotrexate or pyrimethamine can contribute to the occurrence of folate deficiency. Folinic acid can circumvent the need for the inhibited dihydrofolate reductase. 

Isoniazid inhibits cytochrome P450 enzyme function and thus can interact with drugs that are subject to cytochrome P450 mediated metabolism like warfarin and the antiepileptic agents phenytoin and car-bamazepine. 

Plasma phenytoin concentrations are increased in the presence of chloramphenicol, disulfiram, and isoniazid, since the latter drugs inhibit the hepatic metabolism of phenytoin. A reduction in phenytoin dose can alleviate the consequences of these drug-drug interactions. 

Only a few well-documented drug combinations with phenytoin may necessitate dosage adjustment. Coadministration of the following drugs can result in elevations of plasma phenytoin levels in most patients cimetidine, chloramphenicol, disulfiram, sulthiame, and isoniazid (in slow acetylators). Phenytoin often causes a decline in plasma carbamazepine levels if these two drugs are given concomitantly. 

High isoniazid plasma levels inhibit phenytoin metabolism and potentiate phenytoin toxicity when the two drugs are coadministered. The serum concentrations of phenytoin should be monitored, and the dose should be adjusted if necessary. 

Certain concomitantly administered drugs may interfere with the effectiveness of the oral contraceptives or lead to an increased incidence of breakthrough bleeding. These include rifampin, isoniazid, ampiciUin, neomycin, penicillin V, chloramphenicol, sulfonamides, nitrofurantoin, phenytoin, barbiturates, primidone, analgesics, and phenothiazines.

Disulfiram is rapidly and completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract however, a period of 12 hours is required for its full action. Its elimination rate is slow, so that its action may persist for several days after the last dose. The drug inhibits the metabolism of many other therapeutic agents, including phenytoin, oral anticoagulants, and isoniazid. It... 

Miscellaneous other reactions include hematologic abnormalities, provocation of pyridoxine deficiency anemia, tinnitus, and gastrointestinal discomfort. Isoniazid can reduce the metabolism of phenytoin, increasing its blood level and toxicity.
