Gabapentin 300mg: what are the short and longterm effects?
Brain & Nervous System | Last Active: 1 day ago | Replies (53)Comment receiving replies
In respect to taking Gabapentin, I think we all have to remember that one person may take Gabapentin and have no issues, while another person may take it and have all kinds of side effects. For instance, 15 months ago I took a single Sertraline tablet and the next morning I awoke to uncontrolled movements, stuttering and suicidal ideation, yet millions of people take Sertraline and have no issues. For me, Gabapentin allows me to have a pretty normal life, but that might not be the case for others.

@wilmslow - although I've heard others talk about having side effects they really disliked with gabapentin, I took it and had great luck with it. I had postherpetic neuralgia after having shingles maybe 10 years ago, and I itched a lot. The gabapentin calmed that itching without any side effects for me. Seven weeks later, my doctor had me trial off the gabapentin. I was then itch-free without it, so went on without this medication.
