Actually here in this case, the nurse actually expects that the patient may get relieved from any sorts of nerve pain and tingling in any parts of the body, by receiving gabapentin, which is also a anticonvulsant OR antiepileptic drug, hence it can used for treating other nerve problems along with seizures and may also be used at initial stages for prevention of any medical complications.
