3. Manufacturing Phenytoin Sodium Tablets We divide our operations to ensure specialized focus.

  • The Manufacturer: Healthy Life Pharma Pvt. Ltd. First, Healthy Life Pharma handles manufacturing. We operate a WHO-GMP certified plant in Mumbai. Phenytoin follows non-linear pharmacokinetics, meaning small variations in the tablet can drastically alter blood levels. Therefore, we use High-Shear Granulation. This ensures the active ingredient is perfectly distributed. We also strictly control the polymorphic form of the API during processing to prevent crystallization, which would affect absorption.

  • The Exporter: Healthy Inc Second, Healthy Inc manages international trade. This division handles logistics for Phenytoin Sodium Tablets. We supply neurological institutes and government health depots. We understand that switching brands of Phenytoin carries risk, so we provide extensive stability and dissolution data to prove our product is bioequivalent to reference standards.

4. Quality Assurance We test every batch rigorously.

  • Dissolution Profiling: This is critical. We ensure the tablet releases the drug at the exact specified rate (Prompt or Extended Release as per specification).

  • Content Uniformity: We test individual tablets to ensure no deviation in dosage, preventing breakthrough seizures.

  • Related Substances: We monitor impurities to ensure long-term safety for chronic users.

5. Why Use Phenytoin Sodium Tablets? This drug stabilizes neuronal membranes to stop seizures.

  • Mechanism: It blocks voltage-dependent sodium channels in the brain.

  • Effect: It prevents the spread of seizure activity from the focus to other parts of the brain.

Key Indications:
