> > HMMMMMM...Pfizer makes Neurontin...Im not surprised...Warner Lambert is the parent company of Pfizer and Parke-Davis, they recalled Nardil a few months back...now Neurontin...I dont know what their problem is, but I do know they have an EXTENSIVE history of recalling meds and non-compliance to manufacturing standards.

That just happened to be what I thought about the "lack of Nardil" situation I read about here previously. If there was nothing *really* wrong with the medication, but if there was a "pseudo-issue" that might crop up that generates a lot of "chatter" about it, then it could serve to help market the drug because it would "reintroduce" to anyone who is searching about it (on the net), all of the possible uses of it, and it would make the manufacturer seem more credible and interested in public safety (another selling item).
