Sharon, Actually, the seizures can happen to anyone. I know a fellow who was on Neurontin, for a short time who had a seizure two days after stopping the medication. I would recommend that anyone taking Neurontin carefully read the product information on this drug- ask your pharmacist for the info, or google. Read under WARNINGS: #2 Withdrawal Precipitated Seizure and Status Epilepticus... I'm not making this up. Neurontin is a dangerous drug Frank
