Hi,
I'm not sure if this is the right place. >.<
I have just started (10 days ago) Gabapentin (Neurontin) for nerve pain - 300mg at night to start, was pushed up to 400mg about a week in.
If I want to try a different drug instead (which my dr had kind of wanted me to do in the first place, I see her again at the 2 week mark) would I need to taper off of the Gabapentin, as I will have only been on it 2 weeks?
(I have tapered off of Klonopin in the past, also Lexapro, and Zoloft. I've gone from needing 5-6mg a day of Xanax to just .25-.5 as needed. But all that was for Panic Disorder - the meds for the nerve pain is a new thing >.< )
Thanks for any advice.
:)
