Are you sure about the "will need to be prescribed that way" part? In the U.S., doctors are allowed to prescribe any approved drug for whatever disorder they wish to prescribe it for. Does your statement have anything to do with Pfizer (the mfr of Neurontin) getting in trouble for actually *promoting* it to doctors for unofficial indications (always a no-no)?
As for the original question, I found that Klonopin alone worked better for my SP than Klonopin+Neurontin.
