Rationale: It is unclear how enteral nutrition via feeding tube should be given when a patient is receiving enteral Dilantin. Some caregivers hold the feedings for one hour before and one hour after the Dilantin dose to insure adequate absorption of the medication and some caregivers think that the feedings do not need to be interrupted. Both methods are used in this institution, although the interrupted method is recommended by the Clinical Nutrition Service. Interrupting the feedings has the obvious disadvantage that the patient receives less hours of feeding and requires more nursing intervention.
