Apparently it was Neurontin - also known as fentanol (not “fentanyl”, which is a different drug). Some quick on-line research turned up a number of reports of suicidal thoughts and behavior associated with it.

Neurontin is brand name gabapentin.
It is a neurotransmitter which can be taken orally for neuropathy.
Typically used for diabetes induced nerve damage, and also used to suppress seizures in epileptics.
It is NOT a pain medicine per se.
I think neurontin is gabapentin (hope I spelled that right)
