Gabadon 100 Tablet

Product introduction
Gabadon 100 Tablet is prescribed to manage pain that results from nerve damage, which can occur in conditions like diabetes, shingles, or spinal cord injuries. It is also used alongside other treatments to help control certain types of seizures. Belonging to the anti-epileptic group of medicines, it works by calming the overactive nerve signals that cause pain or seizures.

You may take this medicine with or without food, but try to have it at the same time each day to get the best benefit. The exact dose depends on your health condition and how your body responds. Doctors usually begin with a smaller amount and then gradually increase it. It might take a few weeks before you notice clear improvements, so it’s important to continue taking it as advised without skipping doses.

Possible side effects
Most people tolerate Gabadon 100 Tablet well, but some may feel sleepy, tired, or dizzy. These effects are usually mild and settle down as the body gets used to the medicine. In some cases, appetite changes, fever, blurred vision, infections, or joint and muscle pain may also occur. If any effect becomes troublesome or lasts longer, it is best to consult your doctor. Unusual mood changes such as feeling anxious, depressed, or having thoughts of self-harm should be reported immediately.

Uses
Doctors prescribe this medicine mainly for nerve-related pain and seizures. For neuropathic pain, it eases burning, shooting, or tingling sensations while improving sleep and quality of life. In epilepsy, it reduces abnormal brain activity, helping to control fits.

How it works
The medicine influences the way nerve signals travel in the brain and body. By calming these overactive signals, it reduces pain in damaged nerves and prevents sudden electrical surges that can cause seizures.

Precautions and safety advice
Alcohol should be avoided as it can make sleepiness and dizziness worse. Pregnant women should consult a doctor before use, since studies suggest potential risks for the baby. Breastfeeding mothers can usually take it if prescribed, though the infant may need monitoring for drowsiness or weight gain. Since this medicine can affect alertness and vision, driving or operating machinery should be avoided if you feel unwell. People with kidney problems may need dose adjustments, and elderly patients should also use it carefully.

Missed dose
If you forget to take a tablet, take it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next scheduled dose, skip the missed one and continue as usual. Do not take two doses togethe
