Nuerontin ?

Did the side effects of Nueronton ease up or go away once you'd been on it a while.

I told my dr. I would try it and I'm titrating it up to 3 pills but am only on the 2 pill stage. I feel like I'm coming off of demoral. Not good when I'm trying to take care of 2 9 month olds. Some days it doesn't really affect me very much and some days I can barely stand up straight. If this is what it's going to be like permanantly I'm off this stuff.

Yes, the side effects do go away once you've been on it for a bit. Takes the body a little while to get used to it. Wait and see a little, then decide.

I just started nuerontin too. The side effects have drastically decreased. At first it felt like I was on the percocets I had taken for pain when I had my wisdom teeth removed but this feeling keeps steadily decreasing. I am increasing my dose slowly and it seems to be working out.

Just curious, but what is the dosage of Neurontin are you on now and what are you titrating it up to?

Thanks everyone. I'm on 300mg pills. I started at one pill a day and am now up to 2 a day. The dr. wants me on 3 a day.

Good luck, hope it works.. (I am on 2400 mg a day, 600mgx4, for neuro pain for my TM, this is not associated with my OBPI).
