在一份轶事报告中,一名乳腺癌患者在服用抗惊厥药加巴喷丁后,化疗引起的恶心完全消退。在此基础上,我们进行了一项开放标签研究,其中9例乳腺癌患者在每隔一次化疗的基础上口服加巴喷丁300 mg,每日3次。9名患者中有6名报告延迟恶心峰值至少改善了3分(在8分恶心量表上),3名患者在服用加巴喷丁时恶心完全消退。这一初步证据表明,加巴喷丁可能在治疗化疗引起的恶心中发挥作用。
In an anecdotal report, complete resolution of chemotherapy-induced nausea was seen in a patient with breast cancer, after she was placed on the anticonvulsant gabapentin. On this basis, we did an open-label study in which oral gabapentin 300 mg thrice daily was given for every other chemotherapy treatment in nine patients with breast cancer. Six of the nine reported at least a three-point improvement in peak delayed nausea (on an eight-point nausea scale), and three patients had complete resolution of nausea when taking gabapentin. This preliminary evidence shows that gabapentin might have a role in treatment of chemotherapy-induced nausea.
