(a) Each capsule contains gabapentin in a 100 mg dosage. (b) Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant that affects chemical messengers in the brain and nerves. 2. Indications. (a) Partial Seizures: Gabapentin is used to treat partial seizures in patients aged 3 years and older. Gabapentin dosage should be adjusted in patients undergoing hemodialysis. Elderly: The apparent oral clearance (CL/F) of gabapentin decreased as age increased, from about 225 mL/min in those <30 years to about 125 mL/min in those >70 years. Reduction of gabapentin dose may be required in patients who have age-related compromised renal function. Reduction of gabapentin dose may be required in patients who have age-related compromised renal function. Drug-Drug Interactions: Naproxen: Co-administration of naproxen sodium (250 mg) with gabapentin (125 mg) appears to increase the amount of gabapentin absorbed by 12-15%. These doses are lower than the therapeutic doses for both drugs. Gabapentin (GABIX®) is given in titrations that lead to an effective dose. Treatment progresses rapidly and can be accomplished over a few days. The total dose should be divided into three doses given at intervals not exceeding 12 hours. Gabapentin (GABIX®) may be given orally with or without food. Take this medication as directed by your doctor. Read the Medication Guide and Patient Information Leaflet if available from your pharmacist before you start taking. Each capsule contains Gabapentin 300 mg. Dosage and Administration. For more information on safety, precaution and other information about this product, please see the Product Insert. Initial dose: Day 1: 300 mg orally once Day 2: 300 mg orally 2 times day Day 3: 300 mg orally 3 times a day. Titrate dose as needed for pain relief; Maintenance dose: 900 to 1800 mg/day orally in 3 divided doses Maximum dose: 1800 mg per day Extended-release: Gralise (gabapentin) 24-hour extended-release tablets: Initial dose: Detailed Gabapentin dosage information for adults and children. Includes dosages for Restless Legs Syndrome, Epilepsy and Postherpetic Neuralgia; plus renal, liver and dialysis adjustments. Start w/ 300 mg tid or by dose titration: Day 1: 300 mg once daily; Day 2: 300 mg bid; Day 3: 300 mg tid. Thereafter increase dose in increments of 300 mg/day for 2-3 days up to max dose of 3600 mg/day.Childn ≥6 yrStarting dose: 10-15 mg/kg/day. Effective dose: 25-35 mg/kg/day up to 50 mg/kg/day in 3 divided doses. Alternatively, the starting dose is 900 mg/day given as three equally divided doses. Thereafter, based on individual patient response and tolerability, the dose can be further increased in 300 mg/day increments every 2-3 days up to a maximum dose of 3600 mg/day. Slower titration of gabapentin dosage may be appropriate for individual patients. Remember, not all pets will experience these side effects, and the benefits of using Gabapentin often outweigh the risks, especially in pets with serious health conditions. However, if you notice any concerning symptoms or changes in your pet’s behaviour or health while they are taking Gabapentin, please contact your vet immediately for guidance. Effective dose: 25-35 mg/kg/day up to 50 mg/kg/day in 3 divided doses. Indications/Uses Epilepsy: Gabapentin is indicated as monotherapy in the treatment of partial seizures with and without secondary generalization in adults and children aged 12 years and older. Safety and effectiveness for monotherapy in children younger than 12 years have not been established (see Epilepsy: Adults and pediatric patients older than 12 years of age under Dosage Effective dosing range: 900-3,600 mg daily. Total daily doses are given in 3 equally divided doses. Max dosage interval: 12 hours. Child: As adjunctive therapy: As conventional tab/cap/oral solution: 3-11 years Initially, 10-15 mg/kg daily, titrate over a period of approx 3 days until the effective dose is achieved. The effective dose is reached by upward titration over a period of approximately 3 days. The effective dose of gabapentin in children ≥6 years is 25-35 mg/kg/day. Dosages up to 50 mg/kg/day have been well-tolerated. The total daily dose should be divided in 3 single doses, the maximum time interval between doses should not exceed 12 hrs. As conventional tab/cap/oral solution: Anuric patients undergoing haemodialysis who are naive to gabapentin: Loading dose: 300-400 mg followed by 200-300 mg after each haemodialysis session; no doses are given on dialysis-free days. Usual maintenance dose: 3-4 years 40 mg/kg daily; 5-11 years 25-35 mg/kg daily. Max: 50 mg/kg daily. Total daily doses are given in 3 equally divided doses. Max dosage interval: 12 hours. ≥12 years Same as adult dose. Treatment and dosage recommendations may vary among countries and individual products (refer to detailed product guidelines). The initial dose for children 6 to 12 years of age for the treatment of epilepsy is 10 mg per kg body-weight on the first day of treatment, 20 mg per kg on the second day, and 25 to 35 mg per kg on the third day. The typical starting dosage of gabapentin for seizures is 300 mg by mouth three times a day, with or without food. Your prescriber may adjust your gabapentin dosage to up to 600 mg 3 times a day (1,800 mg per day). The maximum gabapentin dosage is 3,600 mg per day, but higher doses are more likely to cause side effects.Restless legs syndrome
