Pain Medication Starts With Letter G
(Newest replies first)

Updated

I was in the hospital and they gave me an injection for pain. It started with the letter g.
Any ideas?

Thanks, David. It's not, I would have remembered gabapentin. It was a name I was not familiar with. I asked the nurse to write it down, but she didn't.

Thanks anyway. I appreciate your response.

Could it be gabapentin? Gabapentin is frequently prescribed for nerve pain, although I'm not exactly certain whether it's currently available in an intravenous dosage form. I did happen to find a clinical study on FDA.gov discussing gabapentin being taken via IV administration at the bottom of page 2 in the following link: accessdata.fda.gov/drugsatfda_docs/label/2009/020235s041.pdf

Hopefully this will at least help narrow potential suspects as to what medication you're searching for. I'll be sure to post back if I can think of any other prospects that start with a 'g'. Gabapentin just happens to be one of the more common brand names on the market.
