Gabapentin is an anti-convulsant. It is a structural analog of gamma-amino-butyric-acid (GABA). All pharmacological actions following administration of Gabapentin are due to the activity of parent compound. Gabapentin binds with the alpha-2-delta subunit of voltage gated L-type Calcium channel, and inhibits branched chain amino acid transferase & probably inhibits neurotransmitter release of excitatory amino acid.
Antacids may reduce the bioavailability of Gabapentin by up to 20 %. Cimetidine may alter its reanal excretion. Gabapentin does not interact with other anti-epileptic drug or with oral contraceptive preparations.
