I just hate when these reporters talk as if Opiods and Opiates are the same. For example, Morphine, Heroin, Codeine are OPIATES. Tramadol, Fentanyl, Methadone, Oky's are OPIODS. The difference being opiates are natural. Like heroin grows from the blue poppy. Tramadol/Methadone are synthetic (man made in a lab). BIG BIG difference man!!!!
I'm on my 5 week of gabapentin but I'm getting a lot of chest pain ,looking on Google the chest pain is caused by a drop in the blood pressure,I was prescribed this as my vertebra is damaged and I'm waiting for a nerve block,but with covid and the UK being in its second lockdown I'm not classed as emergency ,the pain without gabapentin is horrendous,I've looked up other nerve pain reliefs and they all seem to drop your blood pressure.february 3 2021.
4 years later... Most doctors are prescribing Gabapentin for any and all pain. Minor or major, doesn't matter anymore. And saying anything about its' actual use gets you put on a drug seeking list.
I know exactly what you're talkin about when you talk about flying on neurontin. I have an autoimmune neuro muscular disorder called neuromyotonia, if I take it on an empty stomach, too close together, or if I take extra to help with one of my attacks, wow boy do I fly high, euphoria, easy to talk to women loose like alcohol and I'm a chatter box. It feels great, so easy to talk to anybody!!! I love the "high", but I sometimes get high off of it in very inopportune times. But let me tell you the withdraw from suddenly stopping it is like the flu times 1,000 not to mention the extreme anxiety insomnia and inability to do anything except lay in bed and suffer till your next dose its filled its f#&king hell !!!!
I'm on 2400 mgs a day...an I have debetes type 2 with arterial disease an Neuropathy in both feet an hands aggony every sec..and the Gabapentin helps but its not the cure..since I been on that amongst another 500 pills...I noticed I've actually had Suicide cross my mind quite a few times when onn Gabapentin for a year now..I have never thought once about it prior...YES I do believe that is has a side effect!!
Well it's common sense if it's a widely prescribed drug, it's going to show up in people's system. I've took 20,000 MG at one time of gabapentins and didn't overdose or even come close. Something else is at play here but I guarantee 100% gabapentins do not cause overdose. The reason it was in the people that overdosed system is probably because if they do heroin or zanax then they will like gabapentins...because it can get you high. People who overdose like getting high and so therefore you are finding, along with the drug that killed them, the drug that also will get you high without killing you...gabapentins. it's a simple explanation that people are making mountains out of mole hills about because God forbid anyone enjoy getting high on anything unless approved by the government for the masses. Ridiculous!

Please don’t restrict another pain medication

Fun fact: Methadone was created by the Nazis.
It's widely used interchangeably, who cares it gets the point across and you understood it.

What does it feel like when you’re high on gaba??
Works wonders for me.
Alcohol, cigarettes, food are all dangerous.
Sounds like a winner to me
It helps with my extreme fibromyalgia pains as does cyclobenzaprine. But best taken at different intervals
Now it's going to be speed the doctors keep overpr3scribing just like opioids

They knew people were violently killing themselves on it TAKING IT AS PRESCRIBED *NOT* ABUSING IT, so they kept it quiet and sold more 😡
