Dilantin is a drug administered to epileptics for the purposes of suppressing seizures. It is also occasionally used to treat trigeminal neuralgia. Dilantin does, however, have some very serious side-effects. Dilantin side effects include:
- Toxic hepatitis
- Liver Damage
- Headaches
- Mental Confusion
- Transient Nervousness
- Ataxia
- Nystagmus
- Decreased Coordination
- Insomnia
- Hypertrichosis
- Lupus
- Gingival Enlargement
- Suicidal Tendencies
Perhaps the most serious injury Dilantin causes, or at least one that it causes often enough, is Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS), which is a serious disease that damages mucous membranes and skin cells causing separation of skin layers. This disease causes a slew of skin problems including skin peeling, rashes, and sores under mucous membranes. It should be noted that SJS is in fact fatal to some people.
If you have been diagnosed with SJS after having taken Dilantin, we believe that you are entitled to compensation. Our goal is to secure just recompense for victims of defective drugs. Contact our attorneys today for a free consultation.
