Pregabalin Gabapentin

Tiippana EM, Hamunen K, Kontinen VK, et al. Do surgical patients benefit from perioperative gabapentin/pregabalin A systematic review of efficacy and safety. Anesth Ana/ 2007 104(6) 1545-1556, table of contents. [Pg.64]

A method for the analysis of the basic antiepileptic compounds felbamate, lamotrigine, carbamazepine, carbamazepine-10,11-epoxide, gabapentin, pregabalin, levetiracetam, and oxcarbazepine monohydroxy derivative (oxcarb MHD) in human plasma is described. This protocol incorporates a simplified sample preparation step followed by quantitative high performance chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry detection of commonly prescribed and monitored anticonvulsant drugs. Since polytherapy is common in epilepsy patients, use of a multiconstituent assay can improve laboratory efficiency and reduce required analytical time. [Pg.201]

Gabapentin and pregabalin are prescribed in certain epileptic diseases such as absence epilepsy and in neuropathic pain. Their therapeutic target for pain suppression is the a2S-l subunit. [Pg.1304]

Outside of the evidence-based guidelines, other pharmacologic treatments are commonly used or avoided. For initial treatment of absence seizures, ethosuximide and valproate are commonly used, not only in the United Kingdom, but also in the United States. Zonisamide may be also used for initial treatment of absence and myoclonic seizures. In absence and myoclonic seizures, carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, gabapentin, tiagabine, and pregabalin should be avoided, as they have been associated with an exacerbation of these types of seizures. [Pg.450]

Gabapentin, a non-benzodiazapine GABA analog, was modestly effective in a 14-week controlled trial in SAD. Most patients were titrated to a maximal dose of 3600 mg/day.58 Pregabalin 600 mg/day was effective for social anxiety, fear, and avoidance behavior in a 10-week controlled trial.63 Pregabalin was well tolerated, and the most common side effects were somnolence and dizziness. [Pg.618]

Peripheral neuropathy is the most common complication reported in type 2 DM. This complication generally presents as pain, tingling, or numbness in the extremities. The feet are affected more often than the hands and fingers. A number of treatment options have been tried with mixed success. Current options include pregabalin, gabapentin, low-dose tricyclic antidepressants, duloxetine, venlafaxine, topiramate, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and topical capsaicin. [Pg.663]

A single controlled study of gabapentin demonstrated modest effectiveness. A high gabapentin dose, 3600 mg/day, was required to achieve this modest degree of success. Similarly, high dose pregabalin (600 mg/day) was effective in a recent controlled study for social anxiety disorder. [Pg.165]

Gabapentin acts by increasing GABA activity, although its exact mechanism of action is unclear. It causes dose-related sedation and dizziness. It has been shown in randomised controlled trials to be effective in social anxiety disorder (Pande et al. 1999) and to benefit some patients with panic disorder (Pande et al. 2000). Pregabalin is a related compovmd that has recently demonstrated efficacy in GAD in a phase III study (Pande et al. 2003). [Pg.477]
