I took it for Neuropathy but was hopeful since it’s an anticonvulsant that it would help my seizures but at the then recommended maximum dose of 3,600 mg it didn’t help either condition.
Gabapentin is basically a drug that can be increased until you begin having side effects. I knew a man who took 7,000 mg and it helps him as it does my brother who takes 3,600 mg.
Good luck in finding relief,
Jake

Hello @johnspirit2. Because there is another active discussion on Gabapentin in the Neuropathy group, you will notice I have moved your post and the replies you've seen so far here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/neuropathy-13/

Did you change anything other than adding in the Gabapentin when the eye pain went away?
