Multicenter Study Clinical Trial
Gabapentin and uremic pruritus in hemodialysis patients.
Pruritus is a common and bothersome problem in 30-50% of hemodialysis patients. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of gabapentin, 100 mg/three times a week (after each hemodialysis session), on uremic pruritus. ⋯ Gabapentin is an effective agent in treating uremic pruritus.
