Applications And Description:
Gabapentin, sold under the brand name Neurontin among others, is a
medication which is used to treat epilepsy (specifically partial
seizures), neuropathic pain, hot flashes, and restless legs
syndrome. Common side effects of gabapentin include sleepiness and
dizziness. Serious side effects include an increased risk of
suicide, aggressive behavior, and drug reaction with eosinophilia
and systemic symptoms.1 In 2009 the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration issued a warning of an increased risk
of suicidal thoughts and behaviors in patients taking some
anticonvulsant drugs, including gabapentin, modifying the packaging
inserts to reflect this.
How to use?
Allow the test, urine specimen, and/or controls to reach room
temperature (15-30°C) prior to testing.
1. Bring the pouch to room temperature before opening it. Remove
the test cassette from the sealed pouch and use it within one hour.
2. Place the test cassette on a clean and level surface. Hold the
dropper vertically and transfer 3 full drops of urine (approx.
120μL) to the specimen well (S) of the test cassette, and then
start the timer. Avoid trapping air bubbles in the specimen well
(S). See the illustration below.
3. Wait for the colored line(s) to appear. Read results at 5
minutes. Do not interpret the result after 10minutes.
DIRECTIONS FOR PANEL USE
Allow the test, urine specimen, and/or controls to reach room
temperature (15-30ºC) prior to testing.
1. Remove the test panel form the sealed pouch and use it as soon
as possible.
2. Remove the cap.
3. With the arrow pointing toward the urine specimen, immerse the
test panel vertically in the urine specimen for at least 10 to 15
seconds. Immerse the strip to at least the level of the wavy lines,
but do not touch the plastic device.
4. Replace the cap and place the test panel on a non-absorbent flat
surface.
5. Start the timer and wait for the colored line(s) to appear.
6. The result should be read at 5 minutes. Do not interpret the
result after 10 minutes.
DIRECTIONS FOR DIPSTICK USE
Allow the test, urine specimen, and/or controls to reach room
temperature (15-30ºC) prior to testing.
1. Bring the pouch to room temperature before opening it. Remove
the test dipstick from the sealed pouch and use it within one hour.
2. With arrows pointing toward the urine specimen, immerse the test
dipstick vertically in the urine specimen for at least 10-15
seconds. Do not pass the maximum line (MAX) on the Test Dipstick
when immersing the strip. See the illustration below.
3. Place the test dipstick on a non-absorbent flat surface, start
the timer and wait for the colored line(s) to appear. Read results
at 5 minutes. Do not interpret the result after 10 minutes.
INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS
(Please refer to the illustration above)
NEGATIVE:* Two lines appear. One color line should be in the control region
(C), and another apparent color line should be in the test region
(T). This negative result indicates that theGabapentin(GAB)
concentration is below the detectable cutoff level.
*NOTE: The shade of color in the test region (T) may vary, but it should
be considered negative whenever there is even a faint color line.
POSITIVE: One color line appears in the control region (C). No line appears
in the test region (T). This positive result indicates that the
Gabapentin(GAB) concentration is above the detectable cutoff level.
INVALID: Control line fails to appear. Insufficient specimen volume or
incorrect procedural techniques are the most likely reasons for
control line failure. Review the procedure and repeat the test with
a new test Dipstick. If the problem persists, discontinue using the
test Dipstick immediately and contact your local distributor.
