Gabitril (tiagabine) for Epilepsy: “Began a new drug regimen with a new neurologist due to not being seizure free more than four months for most of my life. When I began Gabitril it was a whole new world. I got very dizzy at first but the longer I took it the more sharp I felt and the less dizzy. After that I went almost five years seizure free.”

Gabitril (tiagabine) for Seizures: “THE MEDICATION Gabitril IS NEVER IN STOCK! Both CVS and Walgreens have to wait way too long to fill prescriptions, putting patients in danger. This is not a medication you can just stop taking. Every 3 months there is a long delay, wholesaler McKessen (wholesaler for CVS and Walgreens) apparently doesn't receive any of the medication.”
