Gabaday 300 MG Tablet 10 contains gabapentin (300 mg). Here's how it acts within your body:

Prevention of Allodynia and Hyperalgesia: Gabapentin works by suppressing these two conditions, which are associated with neuropathic pain. Allodynia involves a heightened sensitivity where even mild touch can cause pain, while hyperalgesia is an increased response to painful stimuli.
Anticonvulsant Activity: This medication also prevents seizures by controlling the abnormal electrical activity in your brain, which often leads to seizures.

Pregnancy

Caution is advised while taking Gabaday 300 MG Tablet 10 if you are pregnant. It is best to consult your doctor before taking this medicine.

Breastfeeding

Gabaday 300 MG Tablet 10 is secreted into human milk. Therefore, it's recommended to consult your doctor if you are breastfeeding, as the benefits need to outweigh the risks.

Alcohol

Both alcohol and gabapentin can cause drowsiness and fatigue, and when taken together, these effects may be amplified. It is not recommended to take alcohol consumption while taking gabapentin use to gauge its effects.

Liver
