About Gabastin Capsule
Gabastin Capsule is a combination medicine used to treat neuropathic pain. Neuropathic pain is a chronic progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain due to damage to sensory nerves. Symptoms include spontaneous, untriggered pain, unpleasant feeling, shooting, burning or stabbing pain, difficulty resting or sleeping and evoked pain (pain caused by events that are usually not painful).
Gabastin Capsule contains Pregabalin, mecobalamin, alpha-lipoic acid, folic acid and pyridoxine. Pregabalin works by binding to the specific site on voltage-gated calcium channels, this helps relieve nerve pain and lowers the risk of seizures. Mecobalamin and Pyridoxine help in the rejuvenation and protection of damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. Alpha-lipoic acid helps in providing a protective effect on the nerve tissues and brain. Folic acid helps in providing essential nutrients to the nerves. Together, Gabastin Capsule helps in providing relief from neuropathic pain.
You are advised to take Gabastin Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as dizziness, sleepiness, tiredness, dry mouth and oedema. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Please do not stop taking Gabastin Capsule without consulting your doctor as it could cause withdrawal symptoms. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Gabastin Capsule causes drowsiness and dizziness, so drive only if you are alert. Gabastin Capsule is not recommended for children as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Gabastin Capsule as it could lead to increased dizziness and sleepiness. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side effects.
Uses of Gabastin Capsule
Key Benefits
Gabastin Capsule is a combination of five drugs: Pregabalin, mecobalamin, alpha-lipoic acid, folic acid and pyridoxine. Gabastin Capsule is used to treat neuropathic pain. Pregabalin is an anti-convulsant that affects the chemicals in the brain that send pain signals across the nervous system. It works by binding to the specific site on voltage-gated calcium channels, this helps relieve nerve pain and lowers the risk of seizures. Mecobalamin is a vitamin that helps in the rejuvenation and protection of damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6) is also very useful in facilitating myelin and neurotransmitter synthesis. Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant that helps in providing a protective effect on the nerve tissues and brain. Folic acid is a vitamin that helps in providing essential nutrients to the nerves. Together, Gabastin Capsule helps in providing relief from neuropathic pain. Additionally, Gabastin Capsule may also be used to treat diabetic neuropathy, fibromyalgia and postherpetic neuralgia.
