Neurontin is used to treat health conditions related to the nervous system, which contains the active ingredient gabapentin, to treat epilepsy and is given as an anticonvulsant, especially to control partial seizures in adults and children. It is used to reduce pain resulting from nerve damage such as nerve pain resulting from herpes and diabetic neuropathy, to relieve some types of insomnia and anxiety, as Neurontin is sometimes prescribed in certain cases to improve sleep or relieve nervous tension.
Neurontin should be taken based on a prescription and under the supervision of a specialist doctor to avoid any side effects or interactions with other medications.
