GABALEPT

Gabalept is an antiepileptic medicine used to treat neuropathic pain (nerve pain due to injury or damage to your nerves). Spinal disorders, cancer, thyroid difficulties, diabetes, and HIV (Human immunodeficiency virus) infection may cause nerve damage. It may also be used in combination with other medications to treat epilepsy (abnormal brain activity that causes seizures). Moreover, the Gabalept 300 MG Capsule works in your brain by lowering abnormal electrical activity and preventing the movement of pain signals.

Use this medication precisely as recommended by your physician. Follow the prescription of your doctor carefully.

The medication dose your physician has given is based on your condition, other medications or food supplements you may take, and your reaction to treatment. To diminish your risks for adverse effects, don’t increase your dosage, take it regularly, or take it as instructed by your physician. Adverse events may still happen even at usual prescription dosages.

If your physician requests you to use this drug consistently, use it regularly to get the most benefits from it. To make you remember it better, take it at a fixed time every day.

Your doctor may need to modify your dosages to ease your symptoms or if you develop adverse reactions.

If you have any inquiries with regards to information, ask your physician or pharmacist.
