Description
Product Introduction:
Gabapin NT Tablet is a combination medication that effectively treats neuropathic pain. This chronic pain is caused by nerve damage due to conditions like diabetes, shingles, or spinal cord injury. Gabapin NT works by modulating pain signals, helping to reduce discomfort and its associated symptoms, such as mood changes, sleep disturbances, and tiredness.
SALT COMPOSITION:
- Gabapentin (400mg)
- Nortriptyline (10mg)
Key Benefits:
- Treats Neuropathic Pain: Gabapin NT is effective in managing chronic pain caused by nerve damage, especially for conditions like diabetic neuropathy, post-shingles nerve pain, and spinal cord injury.
- Improves Mood and Sleep Quality: Along with pain relief, it may help alleviate related symptoms like sleep issues and mood disturbances, which often accompany neuropathic pain.
- Reduces Pain Signals: The combination of Gabapentin and Nortriptyline works by modulating pain signals, preventing them from reaching the brain, and thereby decreasing pain perception.
- Enhanced Quality of Life: By managing chronic pain, Gabapin NT helps improve day-to-day functioning, leading to better quality of life for individuals with nerve-related pain.
How Gabapin NT Tablet Works:
Gabapin NT is a combination of two medicines:
- Gabapentin (400mg): Gabapentin is an alpha-2-delta ligand that decreases pain by modulating the calcium channels in nerve cells. This reduces abnormal nerve signaling and helps prevent pain.
- Nortriptyline (10mg): A tricyclic antidepressant, Nortriptyline increases levels of serotonin and noradrenaline in the brain, which helps block the transmission of pain signals.
Together, these medicines provide effective relief from nerve-related pain by targeting different pathways involved in pain transmission.

- Treatment of neuropathic pain caused by:
- Diabetes (diabetic neuropathy)
- Shingles (post-herpetic neuralgia)
- Spinal Cord Injury
- Provides relief from associated symptoms, including mood changes, sleep problems, and tiredness.
