I have been taking neurontin for about 6 months. It was prescribed for me for nerve pain, but I findf that it has been really helping with my mood and my anxiety,along with some other recently added meds. I didn't realize this until I starterd to wean my self off of it, so I started bumping myself back up.
The drowsiness is really bad in the beginning, so it took me a long time to get to the 2700 mg per day. I started at 100 mg 3x per day, and then every three days added 100 mg to the daily dose starting with bedtime dose and moving backwards. This really took care of the sleepiness by doing it this way. When they initially started me at 300mg 3x a day, I was a complete zombie.
