Hi,
> neurontin effects dopamine metabolism
Do you know in what way? I've always believed this to be the case. I've taken it for chronic pain and despite being sedating it always gives me a libido boost. I know it mimics some of the effects of dopamine, such as blocking L-type calcium channels and opening K channels. It may also antagonize the NMDA receptor, albeit in a completely different manner than dopamine. I have a love hate relationship with this drug.
