Taro Pharmaceuticals is voluntarily recalling phenytoin which is the generic for the anti-seizure med Dilantin.  Two lots of this product have a flawed composition, and the medication may not properly suspend when shaken.  This could result in dangerous under- or over-dosing.  This drug is most often used in babies and young children.  The two lots affected are numbered 327874 and 327876.  The company has notified its distributors.  If you have this product at home, obtain a safe supply and call the company at 1-866-705-1553.
