What Causes Mild Stroke After Taking Neurontin Along With Motrin?

Hello, Back in November I was taking 100 mg of Neurontin and after standing on my feet all day I took 1200mg of Motrin. I didn t know and wasn t told that I should not mix the two. I ended up in the hospital with a mini stroke. My question is this…In your opinion what do you think triggered the stroke? Was it more because of the amount of Motrin? And do you think that if I never took the Motrin again would I be able to start taking the Neurontin again? Thank you, Karen Peterson

It is not related to Neurontin. Consult a neurologist and get evaluated.
