Is there anyway to off-set it?
Diet and exercise...I''ve started :-)
Does anyone know, *why* the drug causes weight gain in the first place?

I think that it truly does slow down the metabolism.
Especially at higher doses. And it makes me, at least, hungry as hell!!!
For a while I did a lot of cardio. I was able to lose quite a bit of weight, even while on neurontin.I hope that helps....
