ABSTRACT
Peripheral neuropathy has been uncommon reported as one of neurologic adverse effects associated with phenytoin. A 53 year-old man presented with clinical and electrophysiologic signs of peripheral neuropathy after 13 years of phenytoin administration. Despite a modest dose of phenytoin (300 mg/day), blood level was 40 microg/ml. After discontinuing phenytoin about eight months, the peripheral neuropathy was improved. We present a case of reversible peripheral neuropathy caused by chronic phenytoin intoxication.
