Description
(extracted from source data)
ROE Gabapentin is eliminated from the systemic circulation by renal excretion as unchanged drug.; Gabapentin is not appreciably metabolized in humans.
DESCRIPTION Although gabapentin was desigened to mimic gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), it is believed that gabapentinoids act on different brain receptors, such as the α2δ subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels. (GtoPdb)
DESCRIPTION Anticonvulsant that may modulate certain types of Ca2+ channel currents; analgesic (LOPAC library)
DESCRIPTION Gabapentin HCl is a GABA analogue.Originally it was developed to treat epilepsy, and is currently used to relieve neuropathic pain and restless leg syndrome. (BOC Sciences Bioactive Compounds)
