A 5-year-old child developed phenytoin (diphenylhydantoin, DPH) toxicity after receiving 500 mg of the drug daily for 3 weeks. Plasma, urine, and duodenal fluid were collected for assay of DPH and its metabolites. The peak plasma concentration of DPH was 108 mug/ml, and the decline in plasma level did not fit first-order kinetics. The para-hydroxy, meta-hydroxy, and dihydrodiol metabolites of DPH were measured in urine; duodenal aspirate contained both DPH and the para-hydroxy metabolite. Plasma pH may affect distribution of DPH since in vitro binding of DPH to human albumin increased as pH increased.
