> Anyone know how long it takes to start working for neuropathic pain? I started on 300mg, 3 times a day for nerve pain.

The literature says seven days, but I had obvious improvement in two hours. I ended up having intolerable side effects from the Neurontin, but my current pain doc (not involved in the Neurontin I was prescribed) said that I went to too high a dose too quickly, precipitating adverse effects. I started at 400 mg t.i.d., but my pain doc said he would have started me at 100 QHS and work up from there.

Good luck with the pain. I'm just starting on Lyrica, and it might be doing some good already.
