Gabapentin (Neurontin) Dangerous Medication and Horrific Withdrawal
Gabapentin, Cymbalta, SSRI’s and SNRI’s all fall in this horrific withdrawal category. What the pharmaceutical industry is hiding from you is this Discontinuation Syndrome that is ruining lives.
You can read more details about the ninety or so adverse effects of the withdrawal symptoms associated with Discontinuation Syndrome that we have discovered through our investigation. We have been speaking with and reading testimonies of real-life sufferers.
The pharmaceutical industry only reports a few symptoms of Discontinuation Syndrome. They say they resolve themselves within approximately two weeks. We have spoken to people who have been suffering for years. Many people have had them for so long they do believe they are permanent.
We have permission from many to use their testimonials. We have also taken some from real-life sufferers from different public sources but have protected their identities as we always do.

Gabapentin toxicity in patients with chronic kidney disease: a preventable cause of morbidity.
We have highlighted the essential points:
BACKGROUND:
Gabapentin is frequently used as an analgesic in patients with chronic kidney disease. Although gabapentin is well known for its favorable pharmacokinetics, it is exclusively eliminated renally, and patients with chronic kidney disease are at risk for toxicity. Existing literature on such risk is lacking.
CONCLUSION:
Gabapentin toxicity in patients with chronic kidney disease is underrecognized. Patients with chronic kidney disease often receive inappropriately high gabapentin dosage for their kidney function, occasioning overt toxicity; advanced age and comorbidity predispose these patients for toxicity.

I’m weaning and am down to 100mg. This is the devils drug. I know the real me is somewhere inside of me but she just won’t come out and I can’t stand it! Anxiety and now loose bowel movements. Today is my 3rd day on 100mg. I’ll stay on it for 2 or 3 weeks then everyone says to drop 10% for 2 to 3 weeks. I want my old self back! I have an anxiety med, but don’t really like using it. Anyone else have these feelings? If only I had known.

Hello! I am wondering how the withdrawal is going. I’ve been on 100 mg for almost 2 years now. After trying to quit for 4 days, I am not sure that I can. I’m experiencing depression, nausea, dizziness. How long will this last?

I was on 300 mg at night for 7 months due to nerve pain after a carotid dissection and minor stroke. When doctor prescribed it, he said it had NO side effects. I should have googled it before taking it! I had been experiencing many side effects and decided to go off.
I know I was on a relatively low dose but I consulted my acupuncturist, and she recommended magnesium, and as much sunshine as I could stand. It’s been 2 weeks now and am having bouts of anxiety and my sleep is horrible. Hoping this all ends soon.
Hate the way these things are just prescribed without a concern about withdrawal and the side effects. So glad that I found these comments though as I wasn’t sure where all the anxiety was coming from.
