Gabapentin With Food
UpdatedDoes it work better taking food with it? I had read somewhere that small snacks in between made it work better.

Hello, Babsy! How are you?
No, taking it with, or without food isn't known to alter its efficacy, though it may help prevent some of its side effects, such as the nausea and dizziness it can cause, according to the FDA. Other side effects may possibly include headache, dry mouth, mood swings and weight gain.
Is there anything else I can help with?
