Neurontin withdrawl for me seemed just like withdrawing from a benzodiazapine. As far as neurontin affecting GABA, or the firings of glumatergic neurons by blocking presynaptic calcium channels, or I have even herd at higher doses it's bioavailability goes down, but it affects dopamine to improve mood, I don't really know. I do know that while withdrawing from it, I tried some supplements.L-glutamine seemed to make it worse, so did straight up GABA, but an hour after taking the GABA, it may have helped a little. Also inositol helps. I figured the GABA did not help so much because it can't cross the blood brain barrier. You can get pure GABA from some Vitamine shops. Body builders use the stuff at high doses to precipitate human growth hormone. Tom
