Gabapentin indications?

Gabapentin is used for a couple of main, FDA-approved indications (with some differences by country and product name):

- Adjunctive therapy for partial-onset seizures in adults with epilepsy; also approved for pediatric patients aged 3 years and older (as add-on therapy).

- Postherpetic neuralgia (nerve pain after shingles) in adults.

Gabapentin enacarbil (a prodrug of gabapentin sold as Horizant) has its own labeled indications:
- Moderate-to-severe restless legs syndrome (RLS) in adults.
- Postherpetic neuralgia in adults.

Notes:
- Indications can vary by country and by brand/formulation. If you’re in a specific country, I can tailor the list to that labeling.
- Gabapentin is also used off-label for several other neuropathic pain conditions (e.g., diabetic neuropathy, spinal cord injury pain) and sometimes for other conditions, but those uses are not FDA-approved for gabapentin itself. Always consult a clinician for diagnosis and treatment guidance.
