I read about possible bad reactions if you stop Gabapentin cold turkey. It depends on how high a dosage you’re on. I’m on a low dose so I presume ok for me. But I’m still going to do it slowly and check with my doctor.

Hi Bonnie. Why do u want to stop the gabapentin? I started on Cymbalta many years ago…that stopped the sharp pain in my feet. It was slowly increased to three 30 mg caps a day as the pain let returning. I recently started gabapentin which helped for awhile but new symptoms are appearing…numbish feet and fingers with pain. Increased the Gab. Does help .🤷🏼‍♀️

I was on 300 mg of gaba daily for a month, got negative reaction to it and my doc did take me off by tapering it off over about 8 days or so. As always, get that medical advice each person's medical issues will differ.
