Description

Gabacip-M Tablet is a combination medicine containing Gabapentin (an anti-epileptic and nerve pain modulator) and Methylcobalamin (a form of Vitamin B12 essential for nerve health). It is mainly prescribed for the management of neuropathic pain and certain nerve-related disorders.

• Gabapentin works by calming overactive nerve signals in the brain and spinal cord, thereby reducing pain and preventing seizures.

• Methylcobalamin supports nerve regeneration, repair, and healthy functioning by improving myelin sheath formation.

Uses:

• Treatment of neuropathic pain caused by diabetes, shingles (post-herpetic neuralgia), or spinal cord injury

• Management of nerve pain associated with conditions like sciatica, trigeminal neuralgia, or carpal tunnel syndrome

• Supportive therapy in peripheral neuropathy due to vitamin B12 deficiency

• Adjunct therapy for certain types of seizures (partial epilepsy)

• Improvement of nerve function in chronic neurological disorders

Side Effects:
Gabacip-M may cause:

• Common: Dizziness, drowsiness, fatigue, unsteadiness, mild nausea

• Occasional: Blurred vision, tremors, weight gain, swelling in hands/feet

• Rare but serious: Mood changes, difficulty breathing, severe allergic reactions

Precautions:
Take as prescribed, preferably at the same time daily. Avoid alcohol and driving until you know how it affects you. Dose should not be stopped suddenly without medical advice.
