I could not be more pleased with the results I am getting from the Phenytoin 100 mg. 2x daily dosage I am taking. If I miss a dose, they can tell the difference. The biggest difference I can see is that the rage that was building up from all the mental activity, is now gone. I feel totally at peace with this medication and I urge you to talk with your doctor if you suffer from Adult ADHD. The book "A Remarkable Medicine Has Been Overlooked", by Jack Dreyfus is a great resource to use in talking with your doctor. It can be found at a site I use a lot. The site is alibris.com. I hope this has been a blessing.
Yours in Him,

I am a dad with ADHD and my daughter is on one of the not so effective meds. It beats nothing, but not by much. One of my online doctors advised me to read the book, "A Remarkabke Medicine has Been Overlooked", by Jack Dreyfus. I went to alibris.com and found a used copy. After reading it, I took it to my doctor who agreed to give me Phenytoin or PHT, the common name of Dylantin. He told me it would have to be off lable as the drug s primarily indicated for seizure control. When I told him of a trial in a group of prisoners who got 100 mg. twice a day, in which there was a near miraculous turn-around. I am now in my second week of treatment and I could not be more pleased. My sister gave her son Dylantin for nearly 10 years for seizures an asked if I was getting any benefit from it. My 15 yr-old Jennifer broke in and said, "I'll say he is getting a benefit, why he has not yelled at me even once since he has been on it." I am
going back for a one month review and if he is through with the book I am taking it to my daughter's doctor. I just wish I had found out about this years sooner.
I hope this info helps others the way tht "Thank God" it has helped me and my family.
