The next step was to read all of this article’s references. 2-6 Surprisingly, all 5 references focused on the relationship of gabapentin with the use of opioids or in the treatment of pain, with no mention of the common off-label use of gabapentin in various psychiatric disorders such as anxiety and insomnia. Hence, I embarked on a literature High concomitant use of CNS-D drugs and off-label gabapentin for psychiatric diagnoses underlines the need for improved communication about safety. In this nationally representative sample, <1% of outpatient gabapentin use was for approved indications. Objective: This article reviews evidence-based psychiatric uses of gabapentin, along with associated risks. Method of Research: An extensive literature review was conducted, primarily of articles searchable in PubMed, relating to psychiatric uses, safety, and adverse effects of gabapentin. This study examined off-label use of gabapentin for psychiatric indications and its concomitant use with CNS-D prescription drugs in a nationally representative sample of ambulatory care office visits. Less than 1% of outpatient gabapentin use was for FDA-approved indications. There are about 15 controlled studies demonstrating clinical utility of carbamazepine in the treatment of acute mania; however, it is not FDA approved for that use. 1 The following discussion will look at the off-label uses of the newer anticonvulsants in psychiatric disorders. Gabapentin is commonly used off-label in the treatment of psychiatric disorders with success, failure, and controversy. A systematic review of the literature was performed to elucidate the evidence for clinical benefit of gabapentin in psychiatric disorders. Objective: This article reviews evidence-based psychiatric uses of gabapentin, along with associated risks. Method of research: An extensive literature review was conducted, primarily of articles searchable in PubMed, relating to psychiatric uses, safety, and adverse effects of gabapentin. There are several drugs that may be prescribed for anxiety that were not developed originally for anxiety treatment. One such drug is Neurontin. Neurontin - also known as Gabapentin - is a drug that is sometimes prescribed to those who experience anxiety especially in situations where the anxiety is co-occurring with bipolar disorder. evidence suggests that gabapentin’s use in psychiatry has de-creased over time, despite renewed interest in its potential for alcohol use disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) (912). Objective: Gabapentin is commonly used off-label in the treatment of psychiatric disorders with success, failure, and controversy. A systematic review of the literature was performed to elucidate the evidence for clinical benefit of gabapentin in psychiatric disorders. Gabapentin, also known as Gralise and Neurontin, is an anticonvulsant medication typically used in the treatment of epilepsy, along with various other physical and mental health treatments. Always use this medication exactly as prescribed and consult with your doctor prior to starting any other medications (prescribed or over the counter) while This article reviews evidence-based psychiatric uses of gabapentin, along with associated risks. An extensive literature review was conducted, primarily of articles searchable in PubMed, relating to psychiatric uses, safety, and adverse effects of Objective: Gabapentin (GBP) is an anticonvulsant medication that is also used to treat restless legs syndrome (RLS) and posttherapeutic neuralgia. GBP is commonly prescribed off-label for psychiatric disorders despite the lack of strong evidence. Gabapentin may be helpful in treating alcohol use disorder and withdrawal. Between 2004 and 2010, The Veterans Affairs Department conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized dose The rise in gabapentin prescribing is multifactorial but thought to be due in part to efforts by the pharmaceutical industry to promote the use of the medication for off-label uses. (In 2004, the manufacturer of Neurontin, Pfizer, pleaded guilty to multiple counts of illegally promoting the off-label use of gabapentin, resulting in nearly $430 Systematic reviews of gabapentin treatment in psychiatric and/or substance use disorders showed inconclusive evidence for efficacy in BD, but possible efficacy for some anxiety disorders [9, 10 Objective: Gabapentin is commonly used off-label in the treatment of psychiatric disorders with success, failure, and controversy. A systematic review of the literature was performed to elucidate the evidence for clinical benefit of gabapentin in psychiatric disorders. Objective: This article reviews evidence-based psychiatric uses of gabapentin, along with associated risks. Method of Research: An extensive literature review was conducted, primarily of articles searchable in PubMed, relating to psychiatric uses, safety, and adverse effects of gabapentin. Gabapentin’s ability to calm nerve activity in the brain makes it a valuable tool for treating a wide range of psychiatric disorders. Although gabapentin is not officially approved for these uses, healthcare providers often prescribe it to address specific symptoms that other medications may not target effectively. Gabapentin, known by its brand name Neurontin, has been turning heads in the psychiatric community for its potential to address a wide range of mental health issues. But how did this anticonvulsant drug find its way into the realm of mental health treatment?
