DESCRIPTION
Gabapentin oral solution is supplied as an oral solution containing
250 mg/5 mL of gabapentin. The
inactive ingredients for the oral solution are anise flavor,
artificial strawberry flavor, glycerin,
hydrochloric acid, purified water, sodium hydroxide and xylitol.
Gabapentin is described as 1-(aminomethyl) cyclohexaneacetic acid with
a molecular formula of
C H NO and a molecular weight of 171.24. The structural formula of
gabapentin is:
Gabapentin is a white to off-white crystalline solid with a pK of 3.7
and a pK of 10.7. It is freely
soluble in water and both basic and acidic aqueous solutions. The log
of the partition coefficient (n-
octanol/0.05M phosphate buffer) at pH 7.4 is -1.25.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION
The mechanism by which gabapentin exerts its analgesic action is
unknown, but in animal models of
analgesia, gabapentin prevents allodynia (pain-related behavior in
response to a normally innocuous
stimulus) and hyperalgesia (exaggerated response to painful stimuli).
In particular, gabapentin prevents
pain-related responses in several models of neuropathic pain in rats
or mice (e.g. spinal nerve ligation
models, streptozocin-induced diabetes model, spinal cord injury model,
acute herpes zoster infection
model). Gabapentin also decreases pain-related responses after
peripheral inflammation (carrageenan
footpad test, late phase of formalin test). Gabapentin did not alter
immediate pain-related behaviors (rat
tail flick test, formalin footpad acute phase, acetic acid abdominal
constriction test, footpad heat
irradiation test). The relevance of these models to human pain is not
known.
The mechanism by which gabapentin exerts its anticonvulsant action is
unknown, but in animal test
systems designed to detect anticonvulsant activity, gabapentin
prevents seizures as do other marketed
anticonvulsants. Gabapentin exhibits antiseizure activity in mice and
rats in both the max
