I don't really understand the question. Most gabapentin is prescribed and supplied in the country you live in..Gabapentin is manufactured in many countries, including India and might then be supplied to other countries.Do you get your gabapentin from your local pharmacy in the country where you live or are you buying direct from India?

Direct from India. First time. Probably a foolish question since most Gabapentin seems to be manufactured in India. Online info indicates it's all safe whether by prescription or direct. Just wondering if anyone has encountered problems in potency, etc. Just being cautious.

What country do you live in?

Ah I see. That's quite sad. Here in the UK, we pay very little for medicines. We buy prepayment prescriptions for around $90 & it covers ALL meds, no matter how expensive or how many we use. Our healthcare is free as well.It's terrible that you have to think of risking your health with unlicensed meds. You may be using a dodgy supplier rather than the legitimate Indian pharmaceutical companies.

Is there a way you can get cheaper gabapentin in the USA?

If you have insurance it is quite cheap. Otherwise check out GoodRx which offers big discounts. Or check out Truax Pharmacy which also offers discounts at tps-rx.com
