Exclamation Gabapentin Taper

Hello. My husband is on a WHOPPER of a med cocktail. Dr added Gabapentin 2 months ago. Since then, he has had increased incidence of Migraine/ Headache pain, etc. He does NOT need to be on this. I know my AD's, benzo's and anti-convulsants well, but I am not sure on a taper schedule for the gabapentin. He has been on the med for 2 months @ 3 times per day. If anyone has reccomendations, I am all ears. Thanks in advance.....Erin~

Sorry but, what type of recommendations do you want? Stop taking Gabapentin? If you have any negative symptoms after taking any drugs... In a first - you need to stop taking this drug... then...talk with your Dr. as soon as you can... this is a simple rules... as i think.
