I had a daughter on Dilantin for at least nine years, she had swollen gums, bleeding of the gums, she was still having seizures, stayed congested most of the time. Dr. said the swelling and bleeding was one of the side affects. Was told that the dilantin was having affect on her liver and they was weening her off the dilantin. she would also go through insomnia, temper tantrums. she also had a rash like measle in her face and had genital problems.
