SENTIDOR GEL

Sentidor Gel is a combination medicine used to treat neuropathic pain. Neuropathic pain is a chronic progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain due to damaged or malfunctioning nervous system. Neuropathic pain could be due to amputation of limbs, diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage due to excess blood sugar levels), alcoholism (excessive alcohol intake), or chemotherapy.

Sentidor Gel contains Gabapentin and Lidocaine. Gabapentin works by binding to the specific site on voltage-gated calcium channels; this helps in relieving nerve pain. Lidocaine decreases the pain sensation by blocking the pain signals from nerves to the brain. Together, Sentidor Gel helps in providing relief from neuropathic pain.

In some cases, Sentidor Gel may cause common side-effects such as itching, irritation, redness, and burning sensation at the site of application. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not use Sentidor Gel in more than prescribed doses or on a large area of skin for a longer duration, as it may cause adverse effects. Do not wrap or cover the treated area with a bandage unless advised by your doctor. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and the medicines you are taking to rule out any interactions.

Treatment of Neuropathic pain

Sentidor Gel is a combination of two drugs, namely: Gabapentin and Lidocaine. Sentidor Gel is used to treat neuropathic pain. Gabapentin is an anti-epileptic drug that works by binding to the specific site on voltage-gated calcium channels; this helps in relieving nerve pain. Lidocaine is a local anaesthetic that decreases the pain sensation by blocking the pain signals from nerves to the brain. Together, Sentidor Gel helps in providing relief from neuropathic pain.

Sentidor Gel is for external use only. Check the label for directions. Apply Sentidor Gel onto the affected area and gently rub it in.
