The subunit names are arbitrary; even the experts aren't yet quite sure about how they influence calcium channels. Neurontin is a complicated drug to understand; I can assure you that most doctors that prescribe it don't have a clue about how it works. I have cyclothymia; it doesn't really interfere with my life now that I'm aware of it. I take St. John's Wort and DHEA; that combination seems to give me more energy. All that I can recommend is to try psychotherapy if you haven't already. If you are experiencing racing thoughts on Effexor, it would definitely be a wise idea to lower the dose. As for the Neurontin, you'll just have to wait and see how it works. The combination isn't dangerous, so that's nothing to worry about.
