You have to wean off of it because it can produce seizures for which it is originally prescribed for.  It is a drug that affects the central nervous system and should be weaned properly just in case........

luv,

Don't know about withdrawls with that but i took the gabapentin for like a week and it made me a crazy hostile paranoid person. That drug is strange and i think you should pay close attention to your symptoms when quitting.

btw- my doctor had perscribed it thinking that it may help with my pain. hah-not quite.

I noticed that when I took Neurontin while on Tramadol, the brain zaps where Extended.  They lasted 2-3 times longer.  Especially when I was coming off the Tramadol.  That with the Neurontin produced some crazy effects on my brain.  I would do something and 5 seconds later not remember if I did it.
