How GABPEX-NT Works
GABPEX-NT combines Gabapentin and Nortriptyline, which act through different mechanisms involved in nerve-related pain. Gabapentin helps reduce abnormal nerve signalling. Meanwhile, Nortriptyline affects pain-processing pathways in the nervous system. As a result, the combination may help manage different symptoms associated with neuropathic pain.
