gabapentin: I take 200mg of generic gabapentin in the early evening and have had my restless leg syndrome symptoms greatly reduced. I sleep through the night now, something I have not done in years. Side effects have been sleepiness, dizziness and memory loss, but are minor compared with the benefits.

Neurontin (gabapentin): In my research on RLS I found that iron deficiency could also be a contributing factor. I have found that the combination of 300 mg of Neurontin twice daily and Hemocyte Plus once daily gives me the most relief from the symptoms of RLS than anything in years.

Neurontin (gabapentin): I also take Neurontin. Initially, it was for Periformis Syndrome (a pinched sciatic nerve, which replicates sciatica). Then I started to experience RLS and didn't sleep for a week. My doctor told me to take extra Neurontin and I'm sleeping through the night now.

Neurontin (gabapentin): Nothing seemed to work for my restless legs until I tried Neurontin. The first night I felt like my legs were just another part of my body, they didn't hurt or jerk.

gabapentin: Before taking Neurontin, there were 4 to 5 nights a week that I was unable to sleep. I started taking Neurontin regularly and I no longer have Restless Legs Syndrome. It has helped me tremendously and made a big difference in my quality of sleep.
