Re: Question about Neurontin?

In reply to Question about Neurontin?, posted by Racer on October 13, 2006, at 1:55:54

I've taken neurontin for several yrs to help w/ anxiety. It did make a noticable difference at first, but I don't know if it still does anything. My old pdoc liked to put people on it, but my new one rarely does.

I do NOT think that the medical literature has supported its use for anxiety.

It makes some people sleepy, but I don't know abt weight gain.

My understanding is that it is a good drug in terms of interactions b/c it is metabolized through the kidneys rather than the liver. It is considered to be sorta harmless, so it might be worth a try.

Best,
EE
