Dilantin, or phenytoin, is an antiepileptic medication that primarily works by stabilizing neuronal membranes and inhibiting the repetitive firing of action potentials. It does this by blocking voltage-gated sodium channels, which decreases the influx of sodium ions during depolarization. This action helps reduce the excitability of neurons and prevents the spread of seizure activity in the brain. Additionally, Dilantin promotes the release of neurotransmitters that can further help in controlling seizures.
