Guest guest Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 AKA Neurontin...nerve med. My daughter has been on it for a very long time...was 300mg TID, now tapered to 100mg TID. Good med. She has not had adverse reactions. My mother tried it for a short time (too short, I think) for non-diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy - for her, no effect. B. West New Medication I saw my rheumatologist this past Friday and he gave me a new medication to try for the pain. Something called Gabapentin. Anyone else on this drug?

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 a, It helped me for years with migraine and daily headache pain at a dose of 1200 mg. I’ve been told it is very good for nerve pain. I hope it gives you some relief. I had to increase the dose as I took it to find at what point it worked for me.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Tonight I increase my dose of gabapentin by one pill. When the dr. started me on it he said it was one of four medications he wanted to try. Maybe Kineret was one of the other options. > > > > I saw my rheumatologist this past Friday and he gave me a new medication to try for the pain. Something called Gabapentin.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 Yes, a. Â I am a senior and I have problems with arthritis in my spine and legs and my doctor put me on Gabapentin 300mg. to take at night before going to bed. Â I think I am use to the dosage because I often have to take an Advil 200mg. with it.Lulu Subject: New Medication To: Stillsdisease Received: Wednesday, May 16, 2012, 12:19 AM Â I saw my rheumatologist this past Friday and he gave me a new medication to try for the pain.
