In US there a types of gabapentin .Neuotin Gabapentin is a type of 300mg capsules. It is most frequently used 1) to heal nerves 2) antiseizures (not for restless leg syndrome. Horizon Gabapintin is a product for 600mg pills that ARE for restless leg syndrome. I take the Neurotine 300mg (2) at night along with 2 of Ropinole(for restless leg syndrome (actual physical jerk). There is another Gabapintin that is more for Shingles.(herpes zoster). I have servere L-S pain and have had L-3-4 and C3-4 fusions. I live with constant pain unless in a recliner. So the questions is, what are you taking gabipentine for? The least strong pain medication is tramadol 50mg. I take it 2-3 tmes daily. I steer clear of sleeping pills. I got off of stronger hydrocordone pain meds. The minimum of some meds in combination seem to work the best for me.and others. I avoid any increases that might lead to augmentation( increrased pain from over use) Does this help? I am a retired Physical Therapist of 90 years old. I need a walker because of L-S that no one can help. Good luck. Question your Physician. Be pro-active. google and think of yourself.
