Abstract

Abstract Drug‐drug interaction of fluorinated pyrimidine anticancer agents with phenytoin is well known, but interaction with phenobarbital is limited. We describe a case showing increases in plasma phenobarbital as well as phenytoin concentrations during preoperative S‐1 (tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil) and radiation therapy for rectal cancer.
