Twelve patients given more than 1 year phenytoin monotherapy and 12 healthy control subjects taking no drugs and matched for sex and age were examined for polymorphonucleate (PMN) functions. To assess PMN activity, cell locomotion and directed migration, phagocytosing ability and bactericidal activity were investigated. No change either in the absolute or relative counts of PMN leucocytes was found in the patients. However, a significant impairment of both PMN chemotaxis and stimulated Nitro Blue Tetrazolium reduction or superoxide anion generation was observed in the patients as compared with the control group of subjects.
