Gabapentin effectively decreases both the frequency and severity of hot flushes in postmenopausal women who report 7 or more hot flushes per day. Gabapentin, an anticonvulsant, is indicated by the US Food and Drug Administration as adjunct therapy in the treatment of partial seizures in epilepsy.
Although somnolence, dizziness, and peripheral edema are commonly experienced by patients taking this medication, gabapentin provides an effective treatment for reducing the number of hot flushes in women for whom hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is not recommended or desired.
