During a routine appointment, a patient with a history of seizures is found to have a phenytoin ...

During a routine appointment, a patient with a history of seizures is found to have a phenytoin (Dilantin) level of 23 mcg/mL. What concern will the nurse have, if any?

▸ The patient is at risk for seizures because the drug level is not at a therapeutic level.

▸ The patient’s seizures should be under control because this is a therapeutic drug level.

▸ The patient’s seizures should be under control if she is also taking a second antiepileptic drug.

▸ The drug level is at a toxic level, and the dosage needs to be reduced.
