Non-medical Use of Prescription Gabapentinoids (Gabapentin and Pregabalin) in Five European Countries

Francina Fonseca et al.

Summary: This research paper aims to determine the prevalence of non-medical use of prescription GABA analogs in five European countries, with a focus on Spain. The study found that Germany and the United Kingdom had the highest prevalence of GABA analogs non-medical use, while in Spain, males were more likely to engage in such behavior. Individuals who non-medically use GABA analogs were more likely to have a history of chronic pain, illicit drug use, and substance abuse treatment.
