Side Effects Of 100mg Gabapentin

Updated

I take 100mg each night to allow myself a nights sleep without my mind racing through thoughts. My neurologist said the only side affect is sleep. Was I too trusting.

Hello, Barbara! How are you?

All medications carry the risk of causing side effects and yes, it can cause for more than just drowsiness. The FDA lists the other possible ones for this medication as including nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, mood swings and weight gain.

Is there anything else I can help with?

That helps...I don't need it that badly so I'm off it. Thanks!

I have seen UTI listed as a possible side effect on several sites, particularly in women over 60. I am 64 and familiar with what a UTI feels like. I had misgivings about taking Neurontin anyway and now I intend to stop. But I think the UTI will linger unless I get antibiotics.
