What is Horizant?

Horizant is an FDA-approved medication manufactured by Arbor Pharmaceuticals, LLC. It contains the anticonvulsant medicine gabapentin enacarbil extended-release tablets and is used for the treatment of moderate to severe primary restless legs syndrome (RLS) in adults, as well as nerve pain (postherpetic neuralgia, PHN) caused by shingles. Shingles are a painful skin rash that sometimes occurs after a herpes zoster infection.

Horizant is not the same as other gabapentin products such as Neurontin or Gralise that also contain gabapentin. You should check you have the correct brand each time you receive your medication. You should only use the brand and form of gabapentin your doctor has prescribed for you. If your doctor changes your brand, strength, or form of gabapentin, the dose you take may also need to change.

You should take Horizant as prescribed by your doctor and not take larger or smaller amounts or for longer than prescribed. Swallow the tablet whole. Do not crush or chew sustained-release tablets. Doing so can release all of the drug at once, increasing the risk of side effects. Treatment with Horizant should not be stopped suddenly, the dose should be reduced gradually as advised by your healthcare professional even if you feel fine.

What doses of Horizant are available?

Horizant is available in extended-release tablet form, in the following dose: 600 mg tablet, imprinted with “GS LFG”

The dose you take will be based on your medical condition and your response to treatment. Always speak with your healthcare provider about any changes to your dose so they can monitor and evaluate your condition.

Horizant active ingredients

Gabapentin enacarbil is a prodrug and is converted from this inactive form to the active form of gabapentin in the body. The exact mechanism of action of gabapentin for RLS and PHN is not fully understood. In clinical studies, there is evidence that gabapentin is involved in preventing pain-related behavior that would not normally cause a pain-related response, as well as preventing other pain-related responses.

Horizant side effects

The most common side effects of Horizant and adverse reactions include:

• Headaches
• Somnolence (drowsiness) or feeling tired – may cause a significant driving impairment

• New or worsening changes in mood or behavior such as feeling impulsive, irritable, agitated, hostile, aggressive, anxious, depressed, or having suicidal thoughts
• Hyperactive, problems sleeping
• Hypersensitivity with or without a skin rash

Do not drink alcohol while taking Horizant because it may increase the risk of side effects. Get emergency medical help if you have signs of an allergic reaction: hives, breathing problems, swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat.

Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or at www.fda.gov/medwatch.
