gabapentin and Body Weight

gabapentin has been researched along with Body Weight in 10 studies

Gabapentin: A cyclohexane-gamma-aminobutyric acid derivative that is used for the treatment of PARTIAL SEIZURES; NEURALGIA; and RESTLESS LEGS SYNDROME.
gabapentin : A gamma-amino acid that is cyclohexane substituted at position 1 by aminomethyl and carboxymethyl groups. Used for treatment of neuropathic pain and restless legs syndrome.

Body Weight: The mass or quantity of heaviness of an individual. It is expressed by units of pounds or kilograms.

"Gabapentin was administered in single doses of 10 mg/kg (N=48 healthy subjects, age 1 month-12 years) or in multiple doses of 10-65 mg/kg per day (N=205 patients with epilepsy, age 2 months-13 years) at 08:00, 14:00, and 20:00."5.09Population pharmacokinetics of gabapentin in infants and children.

"A total of 60 pregnant mice, divided into 12 groups of five mice each, were exposed to gabapentin in four different doses of 0 (control), 113, 226, or 452 mg/kg body weight per day, at three different gestational stages including early gestation (1-6 days), mid-gestation (7-12 days), and late gestation (13-17 days)."3.74Teratogenic effects of the anticonvulsant gabapentin in mice. ( Goel, RK; Madhyastha, S; Nasar, MA; Pai, MM; Prabhu, LV; Rai, R; Singh, G; Yadav, SK, 2008)
"several parameters, concerning fertility were measured in 40 albino male rats of Sprague Dawley strain, they were divided into 4 groups, group one received vehicle (distilled water), group two received Vigabatrin in a dose of 200 mg/kg body weight, group three received Lamotrigine in a dose of 30 mg/kg body weight, and group four received Gabapentin 100 mg/kg body weight."3.72The effect of Vigabatrin, Lamotrigine and Gabapentin on the fertility, weights, sex hormones and biochemical profiles of male rats. ( Abdul-Zahra, E; Bataineh, H; Daoud, AS; Otoom, S, 2004)
"The authors reviewed changes in body weight in 44 patients treated with Gabapentin (GPN) for a period of 12 or more months."3.69Changes in body weight with chronic, high-dose gabapentin therapy. ( DeCerce, J; DeToledo, JC; Ramsay, RE; Toledo, C, 1997)
"Koumine treatment of diabetic rats decreased neuropathic pain behavior as early as after the first administration."1.40Anti-allodynic and neuroprotective effects of koumine, a Benth alkaloid, in a rat model of diabetic neuropathy. ( Huang, HH; Ling, Q; Liu, M; Wu, MX; Xu, Y; Yang, J; Yu, CX, 2014)
"Reproductive endocrine disturbances are a major health concern in women with epilepsy due to their long term use of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs)."1.40Second generation anti-epileptic drugs adversely affect reproductive functions in young non-epileptic female rats. ( Kaur, G; Kumar, S, 2014)
"Huntington's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that gradually reduces memory, cognitive skills and normal movements of affected individuals."1.38Possible GABAergic mechanism in the neuroprotective effect of gabapentin and lamotrigine against 3-nitropropionic acid induced neurotoxicity. ( Kalonia, H; Kumar, A; Kumar, P, 2012)
