Glycemic impact of gabapentin and Nucleo C.M.P in metformin-controlled diabetic patients: A case report

Abstract

This study examines the contraindications of gabapentin and Nucleo C.M.P Forte in metformin-controlled diabetic patients, focusing on their potential to induce hyperglycemia. A case report of a 65-year-old woman with type II diabetes is presented, demonstrating elevated blood glucose levels following the initiation of gabapentin and Nucleo C.M.P Forte. The literature review highlights limited data on gabapentin-induced hyperglycemia, with additional consideration of the potential effects of Nucleo C.M.P Forte. The study suggests modifying insulin therapy in diabetic patients taking gabapentin and calls for further research on this interaction.
