Seems to me your on a pretty high dose of Neurontin.. Is it 600mg 3 times a day? ..Or a total of 600mg per day?? .... I take 300mg total per day, I refuse to take more since it can cause weight gain.

Good luck
Thanks for the reply. I will look it up and have my fiance read about it as well to know what to look out for when i start taking it. Ive had it now for a few days and have been scared to start as im super paranoid about starting new meds. I do take a high dose of neurontin..600 mg 3x a day ..a total of 1800mg a day. It has caused me to gain weight and i dont like that at all but its one of the only meds ive taken thats been some help to me. Maybe the prestiq will counteract that side affect thanks again
