Interaction

Folic acid therapy may speed up the metabolism of phenytoin in people who are folate-deficient. Sulfasalazine, primidone, para-aminosalicylic acid, and phenytoin can all lower serum folate levels and result in a deficit. Oral contraceptives may also decrease the metabolism of folate, causing depletion, but it’s unclear whether this will result in anemia or changes to the megaloblastic follicle.
