Descripción

Descripción general

A water soluble GABA analog originally developed to treat epilepsy and neuropathic pain but is not believed to act on the same brain receptors. Gabapentin interacts with voltage-gated calcium channels in cortical neurons. It binds to the α2δ subunit (1 and 2) and has been found to reduce calcium currents after chronic but not acute application via an effect on trafficking of voltage-dependent calcium channels in the central nervous system.
