Extreme symptoms from reducing gabapentin

Posted by eilidh2023 @eilidh2023, 1 day ago

I've been on gabapentin 1200 mg/day, and last week I reduced it to 600 mg/day. I'm having problems with my vision, my equilibrium, and my brain feels fuzzy. Is this normal? I'm working towards stopping gabapentin entirely.

That seems like a big step down all at once. I reduced 1 pill a week. It is doable. I'm off all opioids now.

Your doctor might advise you to reduce more slowly.
