i had taken the following medication for four years and stopped.

1. Phenytoin (brand name eptoin) 100mg X 3 tablets
2. Carbomazepine 200mg X 2 tablets

From the time i had started taking these tablets, i loose control and

sometimes loose control and am not in my senses.

My daughter was on Clobazan, and it made her extremely aggressive. It was a
very nasty drug for her, she was just awful to be around, so we took her off
it as the seizures were better to deal with than the side effects. I don't
know about the alcohol, but I would imagine it would not be a good mix. Hope
things improve for you. Kerrie.

Hope you weren't drinking alcohol while on Phenytoin. That can cause your
drug level to elevate or drop too low as well as harm your liver.
