Dilantin (phenytoin) for depression anxiety

Posted by rovers95 on December 9, 2009, at 16:46:31

Anyone tried this for depression, anxiety or any other mood disorders. It's proposed as a "miracle drug" by one particular source. However, i'm yet to find much anectdotal evidence to back this up? Perhaps it would have a taurine-like effect on me, without the insomnia, in this sense i would like to try it.

I was using low dose Dilantin to help with anxiety, depression and drug withdrawal.

Did it help? Can't say. It didn't hurt.

I used a 100 mg of Dilantin as a mood stabiliser and it was very effective. I've read about it being used for depression, but it didn't do anything for mine.
