摘要
Phenytoin is an antiepileptic drug and is commonly prescribed for generalized tonic-clonic seizure. It blocks the voltage gated sodium channel and produce the action. It has a narrow therapeutic index. Adverse effects are very common with phenytoin but idiopathic ataxia is rarely observed. We report a case of a 30-year-old male patient who had chief complaints of ataxia, giddiness and vomiting. He had past medical history of epilepsy for which he was adherent to phenytoin from past four years.
