Gabapentin is a drug originally prescribed for epileptic sufferers, it helps stop the brain reading signals from the nerves, so it can stop pain signals too. Antidepressants can also help and can be used in conjunction with gabapentin (or other epileptic drugs) Ask your doctor.
Physiotherapy can also help free trapped nerves depending on where and how thay are trapped and of course anti-inflamitaries (ibuprofen) if the pinch is due to inflamation at all.
I was put on Gabapentin and ibuprofen but was NEVER told this was the assessment. Been in chronic pain for 5 years now, after a hysterectomy. What is the best treatment. Am on 2400mg Gabapentin and 60mg of Cymbalta, but don't really want to have to take this for life.
I am allergic to Aspirin, Morphine, Codeine, Hydrocodone, Tramadol and Ibuprofen. After my last back surgery they put me on Gabapentin several times a day. Now I just take it at night to help take the edge off so I can sleep. Now I have to have a shoulder replacement in 2 weeks and they want me to see a pain management specialist because they don't know what to give me when I come home. I told them to just up the Gabapentin to several times a day. But they don't want to do that.
Had a TURP four years ago and urologist say prostate has not enlarged again but this is driving me to distraction. Have been given, prednisone, cipro, gabapentin, ibuprofen, pyridium. Nothing is working; well, it works for a little while but then it's like taking nothing. Feels like if I could ejaculate it would ease it but can't seem to do that. Now, however, the burning pain has moved down to the perineum.
I take Gabapentin. Its non narcotic and doesnt give you a high. It works by blocking nreve pain. It is needed to be taken everyday as it only works if there is a constant steady amount in your system. I have been pain free most day. Stress and overdoing it will cause a flair up, but most of the time I am functioning 100% better.

Neurontin (gabapentin) can be an effective treatment for neuropathic pain, but would seem unlikely to have any effect on any other symptoms, such as gray patches, sharpness, or color saturation. As has been repeatedly discussed here, however, it's not something one just starts taking; it is an adjustment process. See the Health Page on treating neuropathic pain.
I take 120 mg of Cymbalta, 3200 mg of gabapentin and 90 mg of oxycodone a day. it is not enough, what can I take over the counter that could help in addition.
I had a death in the family on Sunday. I do apologize. What milligram of the Gabapentin does your doctor have you on? Gabapentin is a little weaker than Lyrica, but is very similar. Let me know and maybe give you some ideas on what to discuss with your doctor during your next appointment. Thanks and again I am sorry about the delay.
I was prescribed just ibuprofen but it upsets my stomach so I switched to Aleve which actually seems to work better. My doctor said she was going to start me on Gabapentin so hopefully that will work...
I was punched on the left side of my face about 3 wks ago while trying to apprehend an offender. It's still very tender and numb under the eye, on the cheek, the left side of my nose, upper lip and upper gum on the left. I went straight to the hospital from the incident and was given a cold-pack because my eye was really red and swollen. The dr's prognosis was "facial contusion" & I was given ibuprofen & that's it.

Is it true you shouldn't take ibuprofen it can harm the baby? I just seen this today while doing research as to this is my first. i have been taking it before I found out I was thinking my period was coming and I've always had bad cramps so I know to start taking it before my period comes to help with the pain. Should I be worried that I've harmed the baby from taking it? I'm 5 weeks BTW.

Can Kidney pain be a side effect of taking Ibuprofen? I was taking ibuprofen last week consecutively for 3 days (400mg t.i.d) after laser eye surgery. A day or so after starting it I experienced mild pain/discomfort in my left flank that came in waves. When I stopped taking the ibuprofen the flank pain also stopped.
The next day I took one more dose - the flank pain started again within an hour, but was gone the next day.
