@iceblue, I agree with Chris, I was originally prescribed gabapentin 3xday but decided to try it 1xday at night and it does put me to sleep and is good for about 18 hrs. but I can go 24 hrs. without it. I do take it 2 hrs. before bedtime, it takes that amount of time to kick in. You can always increase the dosage if necessary, Helen

Helen - Good to know! What dosage of Gabapentin would you take to make it effective when taking it only once a day? I'm assuming it's more than the 200 mg I'm taking now - because that isn't cutting it...
