ExcerptRelevanceReference
"The contractile activity, the threshold for calcium-induced calcium release in fractions of sarcoplasmic reticulum and the potassium concentration were determined in preparations of semimembranosus muscle from normal quarter horses and quarter horses with hyperkalaemic periodic paralysis before and after they were treated with phenytoin."7.69Effect of phenytoin on skeletal muscle from quarter horses with hyperkalaemic periodic paralysis. ( Beech, J; Dawso, T; Fletcher, JE; Lindborg, S; Tripolitis, L, 1995)
"Horses with hyperkalaemic periodic paralysis were challenged with an oral dose of potassium chloride, and the prophylactic efficacy of phenytoin, acetazolamide and hydrochlorothiazide was evaluated, with at least three weeks separating the trials of each drug."7.69Prophylactic efficacy of phenytoin, acetazolamide and hydrochlorothiazide in horses with hyperkalaemic periodic paralysis.
