Abstract
1 A study is reported of the effects of phenytoin and phenobarbitone on bone calcium mobilization by parathyroid hormone in vitro.2 In a therapeutic concentration (15 mug/ml), phenytoin significantly inhibited parathyroid hormone-induced calcium release from bone.3 The inhibitory effect of phenytoin on bone calcium mobilization could play a role in the maintenance of hypocalcaemia in epileptic patients on long-term anticonvulsant drug therapy.Entities:
