Product Introduction:
Pentanerv 100 Tablet is an anti-epileptic medication primarily used to manage neuropathic pain and epilepsy. It contains Gabapentin (100mg), a medication that works by interfering with abnormal electrical activity in the brain and blocking pain signals transmitted through damaged nerves.
How Pentanerv Works:
Pentanerv 100 Tablet works by modulating the electrical activity in the brain and the way nerves transmit pain signals.
- In epilepsy, it helps prevent seizures by calming abnormal brain electrical activity.
- For neuropathic pain, it interferes with the pain signals traveling through the damaged nerves, providing relief.

- Swallow the tablet whole. Do not chew, crush, or break the tablet.
- Your doctor will likely start you on a low dose, gradually increasing it over time. It may take several weeks for the full effect to be felt, so continue taking the medication as instructed.
