About Gabakon-M 300/500 Tablet 10's

Gabakon-M 300/500 Tablet 10's belongs to a group of medicines called 'anticonvulsants' used to treat partial seizures (epilepsy) and various conditions of nerve pain/damage like post-herpetic neuralgia and restless leg syndrome in adults and children above 3 years of age. Epilepsy is a neurological condition in which the brain's activity becomes abnormal with seizure episodes, sometimes losing awareness or consciousness. Neuralgia is a chronic pain condition of the nerves that occurs due to nerve damage or other neurological conditions like neuropathy, trigeminal neuralgia or shingles.

Gabakon-M 300/500 Tablet 10's is a combination of two medicines: Gabapentin (anti-convulsant), Mecobalamin (vitamin B12). Gabapentin treats seizures by balancing a chemical messenger in the brain called a neurotransmitter, thereby decreasing its abnormal excitement in the brain. Mecobalamin is a Vitamin B12 that helps rejuvenate and protect damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. Together, Gabakon-M 300/500 Tablet 10's helps provide relief from neuropathic pain caused due to nerve damage and other neurological disorders.

Please do not stop taking Gabakon-M 300/500 Tablet 10's without consulting your doctor as it could cause withdrawal symptoms. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side-effects. Gabakon-M 300/500 Tablet 10's causes drowsiness and dizziness, so drive only if you are alert.
