In reply to neurontin taken away, posted by sar on December 4, 2001, at 21:33:56
Hi,Since neurotin is an anit-convulsant, isn't there a seizure risk if it is withdrawn suddenly?
You might mention this concern to your doc.
I went through neurotin withdrawal and it wasn't fun. Fortunately it only lasted about 4-5 days and not as severe as benzo withdrawal - by a long shot.
This doc should be reported to the authorities - could be state-level. Can't remember what it's called. I had a pdoc prescribe herbal tea when I ran out of librium. I told another doc who reported it and the pdoc took alot of heat.
best wishes
