I was wondering if anyone has taken
neurotin and what side effects were felt.
I understand it is a drug used 4
epilepsy,but it was prescribed to my
boyfriend for nerve pain. As of now he is
taking 300mgs 3x a day. I have read that
this drug can cause some major mood
disorders,i even read that some people
have attempted suicide. I am just
concerned because he(we) had recently gone
through a pretty tramatic event,and I
don't know if prescribing this drug was a
good idea. He has only been on it for a
few days so far,so there really hasn't
been any huge side effects yet,other than
drowsiness. I do believe he may have post
tramatic stress due 2 the event as well,so
I am a bit concerned about this drug...
...Anyone?

Neurontin Posted: 09-16-06 11:35am
Hi! I have been taking neurontin at high
doses for almost a year now for my
diabetic neuropathy in my feet/legs.
With me, I notice that it makes me dizzy,
sleepy and uneasy with walking. (please
tell your b/f to be careful if he is
driving while taking this!) anyhow, these
are the only real side effect I notice.
To get more indepth answers, I would
suggest a google search. Good luck!
