    [105] [106] However, another study found that pregabalin and gabapentin had similar affinities for the human recombinant α 2 δ-1 subunit (K i =32 nM and 40 nM, respectively). [107] In any case, pregabalin is 2 to 4 times more potent than gabapentin as an analgesic [ 102 ] [ 108 ] and, in animals, appears to be 3 to 10 times more potent than ...

[28] [26] [29] [30] The anticonvulsants carbamazepine and oxcarbazepine are especially effective in trigeminal neuralgia. Carbamazepine is a voltage-gated sodium channel inhibitor, and reduces neuronal excitability by preventing depolarisation. [31]

    The oral bioavailability of gabapentin enacarbil (as gabapentin) is greater than or equal to 68%, across all doses assessed (up to 2,800 mg), with a mean of approximately 75%. [ 25 ] [ 1 ] In contrast to the other gabapentinoids, the pharmacokinetics of phenibut have been little-studied, and its oral bioavailability is unknown. [ 28 ]
