Just Started Neurontin 800mg for Shingles Pain - Any Tips or Experiences to Share?
I was recently prescribed Neurontin 800mg tablets to manage the nerve pain from shingles. I've heard it can be really effective, but I'm a bit worried about the side effects. Has anyone else taken this medication? How was your experience? What should I watch out for? Any advice would be really appreciated!

My mom took it and had some nasty side effects. She even fainted once. Yikes! Be careful and keep in contact with your doctor
I found that taking it with food helped a lot with the nausea. Just a tip!
I've been on it for a few months now and it's helping a lot. Just be mindful of the dizziness and don't try to drive or operate heavy machinery until you know how it affects you.
Be careful with the increased risk of suicidal thoughts. It's rare, but it's something to be aware of. If you start feeling really down, talk to your doctor right away.
Helped with the nerve pain but gave me the worst dry mouth. Carry water around at all times.
I read you can build a tolerance with this and you might need more as time goes on. Maybe it's just me, but that's what I've noticed.
Are you taking it for nerve pain or seizures? I took it for a while after a car accident and it really helped with the nerve pain. But yeah, the drowsiness was a bitch.
