Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. Phenytoin is having Chat Doctor.  So both will interact with each other and decrease their therapeutic levels. And hence desired anti-epileptic and anti coagulant effect can not be achieved. So possibility of seizure attack and recurrence of Pulmonary embolism is high. So in my opinion, you should continue warfarin. Better to start newer anti-epileptic
