they pushed gabapentin for a million off label uses, even though most docs say it’s basically a placebo.
I have read a lot about its mechanism as compared to benzos and the benzos win out every time, regarding anxiety.
As for pain, though I think it was WAY overprescribed, oxy is miles ahead of gabapentin in controlling pain. BTW, big pharma PROMISED they would never push oxy for anything other than cancer.
But we knew that was a lie.
Now that millions are addicted, they come out with suboxone to treat the addictions. Can’t lose that way!!
The only thing that helps my head injury symptoms is klonopin.
Gabapentin, lyrica, and a billion other pills that wer supposed to help did nothing.
Hhmmmm...our old dog is on Gabapentin. ..among others....been wondering whether it does any good. I hate that the solution to most physical problems is DRUGS.
