About G Neuron Tablet

G Neuron Tablet 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.

G Neuron Tablet 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, G Neuron Tablet helps provide relief from neuropathic pain caused due to nerve damage and other neurological disorders. 

Take G Neuron Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take G Neuron Tablet as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical conditions. You may experience dizziness, tiredness, sleepiness and uncoordinated body movements. Most of these side effects of G Neuron Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

To treat your condition effectually, continue taking G Neuron Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Please do not stop taking G Neuron Tablet 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. G Neuron Tablet causes drowsiness and dizziness, so drive only if you are alert. G Neuron Tablet should not be given to children as safety and effectiveness have not been established.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Neuropathic pain: It is a nervous system disorder caused due to damage to sensory nerves. It is caused by chronic progressive nerve disease or due to infection or injury. The pain could be intermittent or continuous, which is felt as a prickling, stabbing, tingling or burning sensation. A feeling of numbness and loss of sensations is also common with neuropathic pain. Usually, the body sends the pain signals when there is an injury, but with neuropathic pain, the pain is not triggered by an injury, the body unpromptedly sends the pain signals. Symptoms include spontaneous, untriggered pain, unpleasant feeling, shooting, burning or stabbing pain, difficulty resting or sleeping and evoked pain (pain caused by events that are usually not painful).
