I took gabapentin for several months for arthritis and not sure that it helped at all but possibly it was?? I Took two tab in the morning and two at night gradually I think they were 300 mg each I think. However, I weaned myself off of them as I said i did not know if it was helping the arthritis pain. It was making me dizzy and not really clear with thinking. I have tried several different arthritis meds but nothing seems to work. At present I am taking tramadol and x strength Tylenol and turmeric. Having a little depression and I think gabapentin is used for that also, right? I am just looking for some sort of relief for pain??
