I have been on gabapentin for about three weeks and my back and stomach are broke out in hives or my daughterin law says they look like boils on my back .Any reason why
Gabapentin is used to help control certain types of seizures in people who have epilepsy; relieve the pain of postherpetic neuralgia that is caused through having shingles; and also to treat restless legs syndrome.
One of the serious side effects is rashes. And with this the advice is that your should contact your doctor immediately.
If you still have the leaflet that came with the prescription, all the information will be on that.
It also says on MedlinePlus that if you experience a serious side effect, then you or your doctor may send a report to the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting program. This can be done online or by phoning them.
I trust that you have seen the doctor by now and that the medication has been changed.
Best wishes.

Maybe you're allergic or sensitive to Gabapentin (Neurontin). See your doctor - he/she may have to prescribe something different for you.
