I have just been prescribed Neurontin for panic disorder and severe anxiety, but I have been on?

I've not heard of Neurontin being used for panic disorder and anxiety. My fiancé takes it because he has a damaged nerve so they give that too him. I also have a friend whose mother suffers from chronic pain and her pain management dr just started her on it. When my fiancé first started on it I of course did research and I know it is also used for people who suffer from seizures. I also suffer from panic disorder although my case is mild and my dr prescribed Zoloft and Xanax for breakthrough anxiety. I guess this didn't really answer your question but I guess my point is that this med seems to be used for many different things. I really hope this works for you. Good luck!!

I am prescribed Neurontin as a mood stabilizer due to having a diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder. I have been happy with the results so far. It seems that the Neurontin has had a calming effect on me. Additionally, it helps me to get a more restful sleep. The only downside that I've noticed is that I seem to have a little bit of puffiness under my eyes when I awaken in the morning, but that subsides throughout the day. To my knowledge, the drug has a pretty low side effect profile. I sincerely hope that this drug helps bring you some relief.
