( Kadwa, RA; Kamate, M; Kannan, L; Kumar, A; Passi, GR; Sankhyan, N; Sharawat, IK; Singhi, P, 2021)
" The aim of this study was to study the frequency and nature of cutaneous reactions in a cohort of patients being treated with phenytoin sodium for seizures, who were divided into those with a solitary cysticercus granuloma (SCG) and those with a condition other than SCG, to determine if the presence of SCG increases the risk of cutaneous adverse reaction to phenytoin."3.72Cutaneous reactions in patients with solitary cysticercus granuloma on phenytoin sodium. ( Chander Chopra, S; Gupta, M; Kaushal, S; Singh, G, 2004)
" The pharmacokinetic parameters were analyzed by analysis of variance followed by the Tukey-Kramer test."2.70Pharmacokinetic interaction between albendazole sulfoxide enantiomers and antiepileptic drugs in patients with neurocysticercosis. ( Dreossi, SA; Garcia, FS; Lanchote, VL; Takayanagui, OM, 2002)
"Epilepsy is the commonest clinical presentation, though it may also present with headache, symptoms of raised intracranial tension, hydrocephalus and ocular symptoms depending upon the localisation of the parasitic cysts."2.52Antiepileptic drugs for seizure control in people with neurocysticercosis. ( Mathew, A; Sharma, M; Singh, T, 2015)
