Abstract
Alcoholic polyneuropathy is a pressing problem in modern society. This neurological disease is characterized by impaired functions of many peripheral nerves due to the toxic effects of alcohol and its metabolites on nerve fibers. A study was conducted to assess the effectiveness of the use of Gabapentin-SZ (North Star Co., Russia) in alcohol polyneuropathy, involving 47 adult patients (31 men and 16 women). The study found significant efficacy of Gabapentin-SZ in treating pain in patients with alcohol polyneuropathy. Significant improvement was noted after 14 days of therapy.
