I was prescribed Gralise (Gabapentin 600mg) once daily for nerve pain after shingles. It's been a week, and I don't feel much relief yet. Has anyone else taken this? How long did it take to work? I've also noticed some drowsiness, but it's not too bad. Anyone have tips for managing this side effect?

I was prescribed Gralise 600mg once daily for postherpetic neuralgia after shingles. The nerve pain was debilitating, and my doctor assured me that Gralise could help. After a few weeks, I noticed significant improvement in my pain levels, but I'm also experiencing some side effects, mostly feeling dizzy and sleepy. Has anyone else tried Gralise? How did it work for you? I'm curious to hear about other people's experiences, both good and bad. Let's discuss the side effects, benefits, and any tips for managing this medication.
