What precautions apply to Gabapentin?

Gabapentin should be handled with care, especially for individuals with a history of kidney problems or substance abuse. It may impair cognitive or motor skills, so caution is advised when operating machinery or driving. Always follow the guidance of a healthcare professional regarding its use.

Gabapentin may interact with alcohol, causing increased drowsiness and dizziness. It can also interact with certain antacids, reducing the effectiveness of gabapentin.
