I have been taking Neurontin for around 2yrs + now. It has helped me endure the tight muscles, cramps, and electrical shocks. I am looking for any information on long term side effects. I have not found much information addressing on my question. I do know memory loss, weight gain, sleepiness, tiredness are listed as possible side effects. I am concerned what the long term side effects maybe. If you can help I would like to understand and learn about it.

THANKS

Hi
You might also want to pop over to the Epilepsy forum and post this question.
This drug is used for epilepsy and our members there may be able to help you a bit more...

Here is a list of side effects I found on the neurontin web site.

Hope this helps

Thank you for the reply. I will try the other forum. I did Google it but I think there is more info out there then I found. Maybe there are other meds to be considered. One pain dr I had a while back told me this one had fewer side effects but now I am not sure.

THANKS AGAIN!
