It has never made me dizzy. I started with the smallest dose once a day, the pain of neuropathy was alleviated. As the neuropathy progressed and became more painful and broke through, the gaba was increased and I got relief again. Now I'm at 1200 mgs twice a day - still no dizzyness. I understand that it doesn't work so well for some people but please don't say that 'no one should take it' or 'we all have these side affects'. We can all try the least invasive medicines first, yoga, cold packs, tylenol, then ramp up and try others as needed. My doctor and I tried some things that didn't work, so we just went on to the next option. Peggy
