Pilot Study to Assess Tolerability and Preliminary Efficacy of a Titrated Dose of Gabapentin up to 600mg Administered at Bedtime for Insomnia Symptoms and Nighttime Vasomotor Symptoms (VMS) in Peri- and Postmenopausal Women With VMS.
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Gabapentin for Menopause and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 32 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
The broad goal of this study is to obtain pilot data to determine the tolerability and preliminary efficacy of the non-hormonal agent gabapentin for insomnia symptoms and nighttime vasomotor Symptoms (VMS) when open-label gabapentin is administered at low dose and only at night in peri- and postmenopausal women. We hypothesize that the majority of participants will be able to increase and tolerate treatment, and insomnia symptoms and the frequency of nighttime VMS will improve on low-dose gabapentin dosed at bedtime.
