Gabasign 300 (Gabapentin) is an anticonvulsant and neuropathic pain medication. It alters nerve signals in the central nervous system to reduce abnormal electrical brain activity and block chronic pain sensations. It is widely used to manage epilepsy, nerve damage (like diabetic neuropathy), and shingles pain
Mechanism of Action :
Calcium Channel Modulation: The active ingredient acts primarily by binding to the α₂δ-1 subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels in the central nervous system.
Decreased Neurotransmitter Release: By binding to these channels, it prevents the influx of calcium, which in turn inhibits the release of excitatory neurotransmitters (like glutamate) that trigger seizures and pain.
GABA Interaction: While it is structurally related to the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), it does not directly bind to GABA receptors or influence GABA uptake.
Pharmacokinetics :
Absorption: It is absorbed in the small intestine via an active, saturable transport system. Because of this, its bioavailability decreases as the dose increases.
Metabolism: Gabapentin undergoes negligible hepatic metabolism.
Excretion: The drug is eliminated entirely unchanged through the kidneys (urine). Dosage adjustments are critical for patients with impaired renal function.
Indications & Uses :
Neuropathic Pain: Manages chronic nerve pain caused by conditions like diabetes, spinal cord injury, or post-herpetic neuralgia (after shingles).
Seizures: Used as an adjunctive (add-on) therapy to control partial seizures in adult epilepsy.
