Description: Gabapentin HCl (Neurontin), the hydrochloride salt of gabapentin which is a GABA analogue, is an orally bioavailable and approved medication used to treat seizures and neuropathic pain. Gabapentin is a major inhibitory neurotransmitter that functions by binding to the GABA receptors located in the spinal cord. Gabapentin also binds to a novel site on voltage-sensitive Ca2+ channels. Additionally, Gabapentin demonstrates inhibition of dopamine release from caudate nucleus, prevent neuronal cell death, and is antinociceptive. It is structurally similar to GABA and is reported in various research studies to increase GABA concentrations within the brain.
