When you start on Gabapentin, make sure your Dr starts you on a low dose like 100mg 3 times a day and gradually work your way up to when it is the right amount for you. Gabapentin doesn’t work right away. It has to be taken regularly for maybe a week for some people to notice if they are getting any relief. But this just my experience with it. It’s a life saver for me. I am on that does lift above.
