I was also told by both my dr's that Lyrica and Neurontin were in the same class and basically treated the same thing. I was told by them also that I am on a low dosage (and as a matter of fact my neuro increased it today to 900mg once a night, to try that for 6 weeks, because my nerve symptoms had increased some) that i should be ok,, since I have been so far. I have even weaned off of it for one month with no issues. So, I know that once a drug causes a seizure, they have to report it in the warnings, and also I know that every drug can affect folks very differently. Sure I would rather not have a seizure, but I am healthy other than my TM, and my vitals are very good. I have not had an issue yet and if I plan on switching this, then I would wean off like I did before....yes? Yes, good thinking. That is the safe way
to change just about any prescription medication, but especially something like
neurontin which I have been on since day one and will continue to stay on until
something else comes along that helps as much or more.
Love Ya,
Jude
