Gaba Tablet 300 mg contains Gabapentin, a medication primarily used to manage neuropathic pain and certain types of seizures. Gabapentin belongs to the antiepileptic and analgesic drug class, which acts on the nervous system to reduce abnormal nerve activity. It is widely prescribed for conditions such as peripheral neuropathy, postherpetic neuralgia, and partial seizures.

This oral tablet formulation provides a convenient and precise dose, allowing patients to maintain steady therapeutic levels in the body for effective management of nerve-related conditions.

Composition

Each tablet contains:

• Gabapentin 300 mg

Mechanism of Action

Gabapentin works by:

• Modulating calcium channels in nerve cells, which decreases abnormal electrical activity in the nervous system.

• Reducing the release of excitatory neurotransmitters that contribute to nerve pain and seizure activity.

• While structurally related to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), it does not directly act on GABA receptors but indirectly affects nerve signaling to relieve pain and prevent seizures.

Gaba Tablet 300 mg is indicated for:

• Neuropathic pain caused by diabetes, shingles, or nerve injury

• Postherpetic neuralgia, the nerve pain following shingles

• Do not abruptly stop taking gabapentin without consulting a doctor, as this may increase the risk of seizures
