Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant medication that is available in various forms, including capsules. It is a prescription drug with multiple approved uses.
The active ingredient in Gabapentin Capsules is gabapentin. Gabapentin is a chemical compound with the name 1-(aminomethyl)cyclohexaneacetic acid.
Gabapentin is most commonly prescribed for the following conditions:
Epilepsy: Used as an adjunctive (add-on) therapy to help control certain types of seizures, specifically partial onset seizures, in adults and children 3 years of age and older.
Postherpetic Neuralgia (PHN): Used to manage the burning, stabbing, or aching nerve pain that can persist for months or years after an attack of shingles.
Other Nerve Pain: It is also used to treat nerve pain caused by conditions such as diabetic neuropathy.
While the exact mechanism is not fully understood, gabapentin is thought to work by reducing abnormal electrical activity in the brain to control seizures and by altering the way the body senses and transmits pain signals.
Gabapentin capsules are typically hard gelatin capsules containing a white to off-white crystalline powder. The appearance of the capsules can vary depending on the strength and the manufacturer. For example, a 100 mg capsule may have a white cap and body, while a 300 mg capsule might be yellow, and a 400 mg capsule orange. The specific inactive ingredients and imprinting on the capsule can also vary by brand.
The inactive ingredients (excipients) in gabapentin capsules can differ between brands. Common inactive ingredients may include:
Lactose
Cornstarch
Talc
Magnesium stearate
Gelatin (for the capsule shell)
Various dyes for coloring the capsule (e.g., iron oxides, titanium dioxide)
Ink for imprinting
Gabapentin should be taken exactly as prescribed by a doctor.
It is crucial not to stop taking gabapentin suddenly, especially for those with epilepsy, as this can increase the frequency of seizures.
Common side effects include dizziness, drowsiness, and fatigue.
Gabapentin can cause life-threatening respiratory depression, especially when taken with opioids or in individuals with pre-existing breathing problems.
Gabapentin may cause suicidal thoughts or actions in a small number of people.
Patients should inform their doctor of all other medications, vitamins, and herbal products they are taking, as gabapentin can interact with other drugs (e.g., antacids)
