Pheneturide (INN, BAN) (brand names Benuride, Deturid, Pheneturid, Septotence, Trinuride), [1] also known as phenylethylacetylurea (or ethylphenacemide), is an anticonvulsant of the ureide class. [2] [3] Conceptually, it can be formed in the body as a metabolic degradation product from phenobarbital. It is considered to be obsolete [4] and is now seldom used. [5] It is marketed in Europe, including in Poland, Spain and the United Kingdom. [6] Pheneturide has a similar profile of anticonvulsant activity and toxicity relative to phenacemide. [7] [8] As such, it is only used in cases of severe epilepsy when other, less-toxic drugs have failed. [8] Pheneturide inhibits the metabolism and thus increases the levels of other anticonvulsants, such as phenytoin. [5] [6]
