Does this make sense? neurontin 300mg at bed

Posted by amber_spirit on April 9, 2002, at 13:03:01

I've been looking through the posts and some other material and see that neurontin is typically started at 100-300mg 3x daily and then upped from there.
For many, the 3x dosing seems very important especially considering that it has a half life of only 6 hours. Does anyone know of a reason why my pdoc
would start me at 300 all at bed instead of 3x daily dosing? Could this be causing (or increasing) my side effects (nausea, headache, dizziness,
feeling drunk)?
Thanks for any information. This is a new pdoc for me and, given our lack of progress over the last couple month, I'm starting to wonder if he is the
best choice.
