Hello @speercntry, Welcome to Connect. I'm guessing your question about the amount of gabapentin you can take a day is because of the pain you are having with Trigeminal Neuralgia. As patients ourselves we are only able to share experiences and what helps us. Drugs.com does have a maximum dosage guide that may give you an idea but I would recommend discussing it with your doctor.

Have you talked with your doctor about how much gabapentin you can take?

Thank you for you reply and for the information. I’ve read through the link and have found other sources. Some say 3600 is max others 1800 max. I’ve been on gabapentin for 4 days and have read that gabapentin takes 1 to 2 weeks to be effective. I’ll be calling my doctor today because I don’t seem to be getting much relief. Thank you again for your help.
