Epilepsy patients are at a higher risk of developing overweight and obesity. Given the thermogenic properties of (Guarana), this study aimed to evaluate a potential pharmacokinetic interaction between extract and phenytoin in rats. Two pharmacokinetic studies were developed with and phenytoin: a coadministration and a pre-treatment study.

Purpose: Voriconazole (VRC) is recommended for the prevention and treatment of invasive fungal infections in children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). It demonstrates nonlinear pharmacokinetics (PK) and exhibits substantial inter- and intraindividual variability. Phenytoin sodium (PHT) and methylprednisolone (MP) are commonly used in the early stages of HSCT to prevent epilepsy and graft-versus-host disease.

Our study aims to explore the pharmacokinetics of valproic acid (VPA) in Chinese patients with epilepsy or after neurosurgery and establish a robust population pharmacokinetics (PPK) model. The PPK model was developed using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling, incorporating a total of 615 VPA plasma concentration data points from 443 Chinese epilepsy or after neurosurgery patients. A one-compartment model with an additive residual model was established.

Wound healing is a complex biological process crucial for tissue repair, especially in chronic wounds where healing is impaired. Liposomes have emerged as promising vehicles for delivering therapeutics to facilitate wound repair. Liposomes have been explored as effective carriers for therapeutic agents.

This study aimed to synthesize phenytoin (PHT)-loaded water chestnut starch-based biomaterials and evaluate their drug release kinetics for use in transdermal drug delivery systems for antiepileptic therapy. Hierarchical microparticles (HMPs) extracted from human hair were also used to improve the PHT release efficiency. The physicochemical characteristics of PHT, HMPs, and the prepared biomaterials were evaluated by physical properties, antimicrobial activities, FE-SEM, FT-IR, XRD, H NMR, and C CPMAS solid-state NMR.
