Laregab NT LS 1*10Tab

Laregab NT LS Tablet is a combination medicine containing Gabapentin (200 mg) and Nortriptyline (10 mg). It is primarily used for the management of neuropathic pain, which is pain caused by nerve damage from conditions like diabetes, shingles, or spinal cord injury.

How It Works:
Gabapentin acts by binding to voltage-gated calcium channels in nerve cells, which reduces nerve excitability and helps relieve nerve pain.

Nortriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant that prolongs the effects of serotonin and noradrenaline in the brain, preventing the transmission of pain signals.

Uses:
Treatment of chronic neuropathic pain such as diabetic neuropathy, postherpetic neuralgia, and nerve injury pain.

Helps relieve symptoms like burning, shooting, or stabbing pain, tingling sensations, and numbness.

Dosage:
Usually taken orally once daily, preferably at night, to reduce daytime drowsiness.

Follow the doctor’s prescribed dose and schedule strictly.

Side Effects:
Drowsiness and dizziness

Dry mouth

Weight gain

Constipation

Blurred vision

Fatigue and tiredness

Orthostatic hypotension (sudden drop in blood pressure on standing)

Precautions:
Avoid alcohol as it can increase dizziness and drowsiness.

Inform the doctor about any liver or kidney problems.

Do not drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how the medicine affects you.

Not recommended for use in children unless prescribed.

Discontinue gradually under medical supervision to avoid withdrawal symptoms.
