    AbstractGabapentin is an adjunctive drug for the treatment of resistant partial seizures. The antinociceptive effect of this drug was assessed by using the formalin pain test in rats. Although low dose gabapentin (10 mg/kg s.c.) was unable to alter pain scores, higher doses (30 and 90 mg/kg s.c.) significantly reduced them. Results suggest that gabapentin may modulate the pain perception produced by chemical irritants like formalin in rats.
