Hi all!
What will be the best way to take Neurontin? All in the am or evenly distributed during the day?
1800mg total per day .
Dr sez its immaterial , but I feel more benefit when taken in one go early am?
I am concerned about the long-term effects of taking it in one go ....
Your views on this ?
PFDAN's!

Hey Estie, welcome fellow Souf Efrican!!
I know squat about Neurontin but I am sure that some of our wiser members will be able to assist. Just had to say Howzit and welcome, even though it sucks that you have to be here!
BTW I guess if the doc says it doesn't matter then you do what works best for you
Cheers,
Wayne

Hi Estie. I was on Neurontin for 5 years. It took about 3 years to ramp up to 1800-2400 mgs a day, but it also took my body a long time to get over the side effects at each increase. I really don't suggest that you take 1800 mgs at once, as it can cause drowsiness, and a mild feeling of intoxication at lower doses. I generally took a 600 mg 3 or 4 times a day.
Good luck with it!
pf wishes, nani
