17 PATIENT COUNSELING INFORMATION

INFORMATION FOR PATIENTS SECTION

Advise the patient to read the FDA-approved patient labeling (Medication Guide). Administration Information Inform patients that gabapentin capsules are taken orally with or without food. Drug Reaction with Eosinophilia and Systemic Symptoms (DRESS)/Multiorgan Hypersensitivity Prior to initiation of treatment with gabapentin capsules, instruct patients that a rash or other signs or symptoms of hypersensitivity (such as fever or lymphadenopathy) may herald a serious medical event and that the patient should report any such occurrence to a physician immediately [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)] . Anaphylaxis and Angioedema Advise patients to discontinue gabapentin capsules and seek medical care if they develop signs or symptoms of anaphylaxis or angioedema [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2)] . Dizziness and Somnolence and Effects on Driving and Operating Heavy Machinery Advise patients that gabapentin capsules may cause dizziness, somnolence, and other symptoms and signs of CNS depression. Other drugs with sedative properties may increase these symptoms. Accordingly, although patients' ability to determine their level of impairment can be unreliable, advise them neither to drive a car nor to operate other complex machinery until they have gained sufficient experience on gabapentin capsules to gauge whether or not it affects their mental and/or motor performance adversely. Inform patients that it is not known how long this effect lasts [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3) and Warnings and Precautions (5.4)] . Suicidal Thinking and Behavior Counsel the patient, their caregivers, and families that AEDs, including gabapentin capsules, may increase the risk of suicidal thoughts and behavior. Advise patients of the need to be alert for the emergence or worsening of symptoms of depression, any unusual changes in mood or behavior, or the emergence of suicidal thoughts, behavior, or thoughts about self-harm. Instruct patients to report behaviors of concern immediately to healthcare providers [see Warnings and Precautions (5.5)] . Also, inform patients who plan to or have discontinued gabapentin that suicidal thoughts and behavior can appear even after the drug is stopped. Respiratory Depression Inform patients about the risk of respiratory depression. Include information that the risk is greatest for those using concomitant CNS depressants (such as opioid analgesics) or those with underlying respiratory impairment. Teach patients how to recognize respiratory depression and advise them to seek medical attention immediately if it occurs [see Warnings and Precautions (5.8)]. Use in Pregnancy Instruct patients to notify their healthcare provider if they are pregnant or intend to become pregnant during therapy, and to notify their healthcare provider if they are breast-feeding or intend to breast-feed during therapy [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1) and (8.2)] . Encourage patients to enroll in the NAAED Pregnancy Registry if they become pregnant. This registry is collecting information about the safety of antiepileptic drugs during pregnancy. To enroll, patients can call the toll free number 1-888-233-2334 [see Use in Specific Populations (8.1)] . Distributed by: Strides Pharma Inc. Bridgewater, NJ 08807 Revised: 06/2025
