Gabapentin requires a prescription from your veterinarian. This medication treats chronic pain such as pain associated with arthritis and other joint problems. In addition, it can be used to treat some seizure disorders. While the mechanism of action for this medication is unknown, it is believed that gabapentin works by decreasing calcium influx and inhibiting excitatory neurotransmitters. Gabapentin comes in either a tablet or a capsule in various strengths.

For:

Cats, Horses, Rabbits

Benefits:

  • Helps manage chronic pain often associated with cancer or arthritis
  • Treats seizures

How it works:

Gabapentin stabilizes electrical activity in the brain which prevents seizures caused by excessive electrical activity. Gabapentin mimics the activity of GABA (a neurotransmitter) which helps to calm the nerve activity in the brain.

Storage:

Store Gabapentin Oral Solution in the refrigerator between 36-46°F (2-8°C)

Weight Dosage

This medication may interact with some other medications. Therefore, be sure to inform your veterinarian of any medications your pet may be taking, especially oral liquids containing xylitol or narcotics. Use with caution if your pet has a known allergy to gabapentin. Do not stop treatment abruptly, as doing so can cause serious side effects, including seizures. If you notice any behavioral or physiological changes in your pet while administering this medication, contact your veterinarian immediately.
