Cerebyx FAQs
Cerebyx is used to control seizures. It is often administered in a hospital setting for the treatment of status epilepticus or to prevent seizures during surgery.
Cerebyx (fosphenytoin) and Dilantin (phenytoin) are not the same, but they are related. Cerebyx is a prodrug of phenytoin, meaning it is converted into phenytoin in the body. Both are used to control seizures, but Cerebyx is often used in situations where intravenous or intramuscular administration is needed, as it is more soluble and can be administered more quickly than phenytoin.
Cerebyx is classified as an anticonvulsant.
