General Information
This drug can come in capsules and tablets. It contains the active component Gabapentin (that is why it often has two names) which is used while treating epilepsy by regulating electrical brain activity. Let’s talk more about this function of the drug.
It is widely known that human nerves and brain consist of cells that are constantly in communication via electrical signals in order to provide proper function of brain and nerves. That is why all the electrical signals between these vital body organs must be carefully regulated at any time.
But this function can be in disorder when there is an over-stimulation of brain caused by excessive quantity of electrical signals.
Then seizures may happen. Neurontin averts excessive electrical signals in the brain. Its action can be compared to a kind of neurotransmitter, which is chemical substance which is released at the end of a nerve fiber or stored at the nerve cell.
These body chemicals transmit messages or signals to the nerve cells. They can also function as a special “balance keepers” or “regulators” of nerve activity in the brain.
Therefore, Neurontin acts similarly to the following neurotransmitter and calms the nerve activity in the brain.
Usage of Neurontin
Neurontic can be taken by both adults and children. It can be used to treat seizures in adults and children who have reached the age of 12 at least and as an additional drug to treat partial seizures in children aged from 3 to 12 who take some other anti-epileptic medicines.
But take serious precautions while giving this drug to children and teenagers as it may impose effects on intelligence, learning, concentration difficulties, memory loss and development.
It is also commonly used among adults to treat nerve pain provoked by shingles or herpes viruses. Neurontin can be used to treat pain that results from damage or a disturbance in the function of nerves (neuropathic pain).
