Background
Gabapentin, known under the chemical name 1- (aminomethyl) cyclohexane acetic acid, also known as 1- (methylamino) cyclohexane acetic acid, has a molecular formula of C 9H17NO2, and was the first antiepileptic developed by the company Warner-Lanbert in the United states, and was first marketed in the United kingdom in 1993.
The structural formula is shown as follows.
Gabapentin is a derivative of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) with a pharmacological effect different from that of existing antiepileptic drugs, and recent studies have shown that the effect of gabapentin is produced by altering GABA metabolism.

Gabapentin showed an epileptic effect in various animal models, and in addition, also in animal spasticity, analgesia, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis models. Gabapentin has a high affinity for novel binding sites of brain tissue, and it can cross some barriers in vivo via amino acid transfer bodies, with less behavioral and cardiovascular side effects than other anticonvulsants. Additional treatments for epileptic patients with localized seizures that are not satisfactorily controlled or tolerated by conventional antiepileptic drugs, and epileptic patients with localized seizures and subsequent generalization.
