What Are The Side Effects Of Over Dosing Neurontin 300 Mg ?

My daughter, age 49, may have taken 2 of her 300mg Neurontin capsules by mistake. She takes 1 capsule every night, but tonight, she didn t remember taking the first one. There were 3 capsules in the bottle and now there is only 1, so we think there is a possibility that she took 2 by mistake. Is there anything that we need to do right away. We are speculating that she may have taken 2 but are unsure.

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It is possible that 2 tablets were accidentally taken at the same time but it is unlikely that it would have a significant detrimental effect unless high doses continue to be used.

If she returns to her normal dose then there should be no problems.

I hope this helps
