I started on 100mg x3 gabapentin and then worked my way up to 300mg x3 daily. Once I got to 300mg I became so damn stupid. So then I told my pain mgt doc and she almost fell out of her seating laughing by the way I told her I’m dumb but then she wanted to see if Lyrica would be any better. Got on 75mg x3 and I’m still very stupid.
I never remember anything and forget words mid sentence or what I’m even talking about.
Anyone else have this struggle also?
I take 300 mg of gabapentin three times per day. The first three weeks or so, I felt the same. Sleepy and slow witted. After that, I adjusted and didn’t experience those side effects anymore.
How long were you on it?
