Celontin is a medication used primarily to treat petit mal seizures. When people hear the word “seizure,” they usually do not picture a person sitting still and staring for a few brief seconds. However, this is just what can happen with a petit mal seizure. The problem is that these small seizures can happen hundreds of times in a day or interfere with learning or other activities. Methsuximide is the generic of Celontin.
Petit mal seizures are caused by abnormal electrical activity within the brain, and Celontin helps to decrease such activity. This allows the person to get back to normal functioning. However, Methsuximide will never cure petit mal seizures absolutely; it is used as an ongoing treatment.

One should always give the doctor a list of all medications and supplements one takes. With Methsuximide, it is important to mention medications for pain, depression, sleeping pills, sedatives, tranquilizers, and other seizure medications. Conditions to reveal to the doctor when discussing a Celontin prescription are pregnancy and breastfeeding, mental illness, kidney disease or liver disease.
One should never stop taking Celontin suddenly unless a doctor specifically tells him to do so. He can experience many side effects if he does not allow the doctor to gradually lower the dose before he goes off the medication altogether. Take exactly the amount of Methsuximide prescribed by the doctor and take it exactly as ordered. Alert the doctor if any side effects seem severe.
Some of the more common side effects of Celontin are related in some way to the nervous system, such as slowed thinking, confusion, and problems with coordination, dizziness, drowsiness, and headache. Other side effect people taking Methsuximide may experience have more to do with digestion, including stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, constipation, loss of appetite and weight loss. Swollen eyelids, light sensitivity, and blurry vision are other symptoms of Methsuximide.
Celontin is a powerful drug, and some of its side effects can be serious. One might get an infection with symptoms such as fever and chills. Skin problems such as hives, rash or blisters can occur. Muscle pain or joint pain can also be problems. If one experiences any of these side effects when taking Methsuximide, one should seek help right away.
Some testing may be necessary while one is on Celontin. The blood, liver, and kidneys may all need to be monitored to make sure the patient remains healthy. Blood monitoring is important because Methsuximide can decrease the levels of different kinds of blood cells in the body, lowering immunity and increasing bleeding after injuries.
