IPC: A61M5/142
Filed: 2004-10-21
Abstract: Injectable compositions containing gabapentin and processes for preparing sterile injectable compositions containing gabapentin are discussed. The process includes subjecting the compositions to heat. Heating results in increased production of gabapentin lactam, which has previously been shown to be toxic.
