I'm going to be 84. I've been taking gabapentin since I got periperal neuropathy from chemo treatment at age 79. I take 300mg.,3 times a day. So far my brain is ok.

I'm glad you can tolerate that much. I take 2 at night or 3 if. 2 doesn;t work. I'm trying
to get off it because I do find I'm not sharp . I'm fortgetfull a lot more than before. I was
told not to take more than 1 daytime because it could make me feel tired and. not to drive.
I'v been taking it for about two years for a radiculopathy diagnosis. I'm age 86.
