Oh my, not to worry. Everyone reacts differently to any medication.

Those drugs just made me very sleepy. That’s all.

Don’t be afraid! I’ve been taking Gabapentin for many years and it helped so much with my sleep. You’re starting at the lowest dose so you’ll be fine. My 92 yo Mom is also taking a 100mg at bedtime and she has done great on it!!

When I was prescribed gabapentin- with in a week the side effects in both my hands and feet were visible, fluid retention at its worst, or so I thought, then the general weight gain and I was still in pain. I stopped taking it, the pain was the same but the weight slowly dropped.

I began with a similar dose. I had no side effects and considered it a lifesaver because prior to taking after just 15 minutes weeding or similar activity I was in agony. Suddenly I could function.
