I'm not sure about the got hands on.... I think it should be under the guise of an MD, but whatever. After about 600-900mg at a dose it pees out your system and isn't useful. 2400-3600mg a day (4x). But be careful starting it, you can be rather loopy and have slurred speech. It can cause vision problems just like its cousin Lyrica.It's not a completely innocent agent and is a potential CNS depressant but it is pretty untoxic in the right hands.
Its primarily useful for anxiety relief augmentation and some people swear they can sleep with it although personally I would be long used to that.
