patients with impaired liver function, elderly patients, or those who are gravely ill may show early signs of toxicity. because the fraction of unbound phenytoin is increased in patients with renal or hepatic disease, or in those with hypoalbuminemia, the monitoring of phenytoin serum levels should be based on the unbound fraction in those patients. patients who are intermediate or poor metabolizers of cyp2c9 substrates (e.g., *1/*3, *2/*2, *3/*3) may exhibit increased phenytoin serum concentrations compared to patients who are normal metabolizers (e.g., *1/*1). thus, patients who are known to be intermediate or poor metabolizers may ultimately require lower doses of phenytoin to maintain similar steady-state concentrations compared to normal metabolizers. if early signs of dose-related central nervous system (cns) toxicity develop, serum concentrations should be checked immediately [see clinical pharmacology (12.5)].
