Neurontin/Gabapentin

Hi, I’ve just tapered off pramipexole (because of augmentation) whilst starting to take neurontin. How long does it take to get working? I started on 100mg a month ago and have increased to 200mg for the last 2 weeks. Thanks

Search for Joolsg on this problem.

A year ago she/he answered a similar question.

Joolsg took a much higher dose, but later switched to pregabalin and oxycontin as it did not work.

My fiance has to take at least 600mg for it to work which usually worked with in an hour.
