Patient summary
Gabapentin hard capsules from 100mg to 600mg, used in the management of epilepsy and neuropathic pain. A structural analogue of GABA.
Mechanism of action
Gabapentin is a structural analogue of the neurotransmitter GABA, although it does not interact directly with GABA receptors. It binds to the alpha-2-delta subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels, which modulates the release of excitatory neurotransmitters.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
Pregnancy: Use only if the potential benefit outweighs the risk to the foetus. Breastfeeding: Confirm breastfeeding suitability with a qualified clinician or pharmacist before use.
