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.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Pruritus is defined as the second order of nociception, the first being pain; thus, there is a rationale to study gabapentin, a drug that increases the threshold to experience nociception."9.12Gabapentin in patients with the pruritus of cholestasis: a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial. ( Bergasa, NV; Engler, D; Ginsburg, IH; McGee, M, 2006)
"Combined spinal administration of gabapentin and low doses of morphine significantly reduces pain-related behaviors in this acute rat pancreatitis model, whereas these agents were ineffective when used alone in this dose range."7.72Intrathecal gabapentin enhances the analgesic effects of subtherapeutic dose morphine in a rat experimental pancreatitis model.
