Mechanism of Action[edit | edit source]
The exact mechanism of action of fengabine is not fully understood. However, it is believed to modulate the levels of certain neurotransmitters in the brain, which are chemicals that transmit signals between nerve cells. This modulation may help alleviate symptoms of depression.

As with many antidepressants, fengabine may cause a range of side effects. Common side effects observed in clinical trials include nausea, headache, and dizziness. More serious side effects may also occur, and patients should be monitored closely by their healthcare provider.
