Guest guest Posted April 11, 2000 Report Share Posted April 11, 2000 Hi Becca, Can the Magnesium and Neurontin be taken at the same time? The pharmacist told me they can't - that the mag. will take away Neurontin's effects. What do you think? Gretchen Janie and Betsi wrote: > > Hi becca here!! > I do actually have a suggestion for you.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2000 Report Share Posted April 11, 2000 HI Gretchen, As far as I know yes they can be taken together. I do take them together and to the best of my knowledge there hasn't been any problem. BUT-- since someone told you otherwise, I will specifically find out tomorrow. I see my chiropractor in the AM. and I have a friend who is a pharmacist and I will find out for sure!!

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2000 Report Share Posted April 12, 2000 HELLO!!!! I talked to a few people today. DOCTOR and 2 pharmacists They basically agreed that you should NOT take Neurontin and Magnesium together. Two hours apart is a better choice. Which also means to watch out for PRODUCTS that contain magnesium if you are taking the Neurontin, too. And example of this is MAALOX.
