Gabapentin going,!!!!!

[Polesden11]

Has anyone else received what seems to be a round Robin letter saying it won't be prescribed any more. Up here ........Cumbria....there seems to be an epidemic of them and I'm worried what will happen if they cancel mine. We're you offered any reasona5alternative,,?Oh yes....... inn the dog house things go madder and madder Barney has moved from eating remotes and car keys to CUSHIONS. I Think he knows I can't walk at all now so he gets away with more!

Hi

Nothing has changed here in the midlands.

might be a local shortage.

There are alternatives available.

Hi Sue! 👋

I haven’t received a letter and don’t think it’s a problem here but i would suggest speaking to your GP and pharmacist.

I had to laugh about Barney!

Dogs are real opportunistic beings- one of mine now finishes off for me, particularly my morning porridge,

Just found this online

Mylan has gabapentin 250 mg/5 mL oral solution in 470 mL bottles on intermittent back order and the company is releasing supplies as they become available. Neurontin 250 mg/5 mL oral solution in 470 mL bottles are on back order and the company estimates a release date in mid- to late-July 2023.

Hope this helps
