phenytoin and Insulin Resistance

phenytoin has been researched along with Insulin Resistance in 3 studies

Insulin Resistance: Diminished effectiveness of INSULIN in lowering blood sugar levels: requiring the use of 200 units or more of insulin per day to prevent HYPERGLYCEMIA or KETOSIS.

"Phenytoin sodium has been used to treat muscle cramps of diverse causes, and is known to increase insulin sensitivity during long-term use."7.67Phenytoin-induced improvement in muscle cramping and insulin action in three patients with the syndrome of insulin resistance, acanthosis nigricans, and acral hypertrophy. ( Flier, JS; Kingston, WJ; Landsberg, L; Meneilly, GS; Minaker, KL; Moxley, RT; Rowe, JW; Young, JB, 1989)
" While there was a dramatic response of the muscle cramps to phenytoin therapy, some other features of metabolic syndrome did not respond to phenytoin therapy alone."3.80Syndrome of insulin resistance with acanthosis nigricans, acral hypertrophy and muscle cramps in an adolescent - a rare diagnosis revisited. ( Ghosh, U; Mathai, S; Thomas, M, 2014)
"We recruited 98 patients with epilepsy (45 taking phenytoin, 27 taking valproate, and 26 not taking any AED)."3.78Characterization of glucose homeostasis and lipid profile in adult, seizure-free, epileptic patients in Asian population.
