Have U noticed Gabapentin side effects?

What does Gabapentin do to the kidneys?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Just Want to Talk Support Group.

Hi, I don't know a lot about this, however my doctor took me off of it after I'd been on it a few years because he said it was affecting my kidneys (it can cause kidney abnormalities in some cases).

For whatever reason, Gaba has been very broadly used. I was ill, no clear diagnosis and I was put on it. It seemed to be OK, no side effects, but no help for the first week! The 8th day, the drug took a turn and closed my throat and my breathing. If I had not had someone there at the time, I believe I would have died. Lots of Doctors use that drug like Aspirin. Be careful!

Been on gabapentin longer than I can remember, but I’ve had no issues or side effects. And yes, as someone already commented, they’re throwing it at everything and everyone for every reason. 🤦🏽‍♀️
