Hi i would like to ask about the above medication i take each day,

Is this a lot of medication for one day ?? i have chronic back pain,they do help ,i would just like to know what people thoughts are about my daily dosage ..is it a normal dose,is it to much or about the right amount ,anyone else on the same kind of dosage.Thank you

I take gabapentin 900mg 3X a day

Naproxen 500mg 2x a day

Nefopam 30mg up to 3X a day (I usually only take twice)

Topiramate 25mg 1x a day

And cocodamol as and when needed

I still struggle with pain, but I’m waiting for a referral to a consultant, and hopefully a surgery to help with my pain. (Hip dysplasia) I also have Fibromyalgia and ME.

If your doctors thought you were on too much they would be trying to take something away from you.

Unfortunately if there isn’t any treatment options for your back pain then the only choice is pain management.

If the medication you take is what you need for a better quality of life, I say, as long as your consultant or gp is doing regular liver function tests etc then don’t worry.

Are you on omeprazole alongside your naproxen? If you aren’t I would advise asking your doctor to be put on it as naproxen can eat away at your stomach lining.
