Target snapshot
Standard dose gabapentin (Standard dose gabapentin) — Mario Negri Institute for Pharmacological Research. Gabapentin reduces neuronal excitability by binding to the alpha-2-delta subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels, thereby decreasing calcium influx and neurotransmitter release.
