I took Gabapentin for about a week and noticed a severe memory loss problem. Another problem was that I could not remember words to finish sentences. It was very noticeable to me. The only thing different was that I had added Gabapentin. Looked up the side effects and the memory problem was listed. Had only been on it a week. My memory went back to normal after I quit taking it.
I see a lot of people on this forum trying to get off their medications. Several of you have stated that you have been on the medicines for long periods of time, some for years. You need professional help to stop taking these medicines. You could have severe complications trying to do it on your own!
