Gabapentin and Methylcobalamin Tablets are a combination medicine used to treat nerve-related pain and support nerve health.

Here are the key details:

• Composition: Each tablet contains:

  • Gabapentin – a medicine that helps reduce nerve pain.

  • Methylcobalamin – an active form of vitamin B12 that supports nerve repair and function.

• Dosage Form: Oral tablets, usually taken once or multiple times daily as prescribed by a doctor.

• Mode of Action:

  • Gabapentin: Works by calming overactive nerves and reducing the transmission of pain signals to the brain.

  • Methylcobalamin: Supports nerve repair, regeneration, and maintenance by assisting in the synthesis of myelin (the protective sheath around nerves).

• Uses:

  • Neuropathic pain – due to diabetes, nerve injury, or shingles.

  • Peripheral neuropathy – numbness, tingling, or burning sensations in hands or feet.

  • Sometimes used as supportive therapy in nerve-related conditions to improve nerve health.

• Treatment Goal: To relieve nerve pain, improve nerve function, and prevent further nerve damage.

• Side Effects:

  • Common: drowsiness, dizziness, fatigue, mild gastrointestinal discomfort, headache.

  • Less common/serious: swelling of hands or feet, allergic reactions, difficulty concentrating, mood changes.

• Precautions:

  • Avoid alcohol or sedatives as they may increase drowsiness caused by Gabapentin.

  • Use caution while driving or operating machinery.

  • Dose adjustments may be needed in patients with kidney problems.

  • Not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless prescribed.

  • Inform the doctor about other medications to avoid interactions.

👉 This combination is effective because Gabapentin addresses nerve pain directly, while Methylcobalamin supports nerve repair, providing both symptom relief and long-term nerve health benefits.
