"i was rx&#039;d gabapentin to address the agitated/mood-swingy feelings i still had after being rx&#039;d lamictal to address my highly recurrent depression. lamictal addresses the big problem of depression and gabapentin is like the final touch that makes things peaceful/balanced.



i take 3-400 mg right before work (prn) and i can get through the day stable, calm and able to focus on what i need to do. if i forget to take a dose, i&#039;ll finally realize how agitated/emotional i am by around 10:30. i&#039;ll take my dose and within an hour i&#039;m back to normal. it&#039;s really great.



no side-effects that i notice. i take it prn, like a benzo replacement, so sometimes i&#039;ll take 2-300 mgs in the afternoon if i think something stressful is coming up. great med!"
