Phenytoin, easy peasy. I can already see the mnemonic 'Phenytoin Prevents Persistent Seizures' in my head.

Definitely Phenytoin. That's the one I always remember from my pharmacology classes. It's like the king of seizure meds or something.

Hmm, Phenytoin sounds about right. I mean, what other anticonvulsant would they be asking about? That's like the first one they teach you in med school.
