Gabapentin kidney
Common Questions and Answers about Gabapentin kidney
neurontin
What you describe is not a side effect of gabapentin. They contraindicate its use in dogs that have kidney deficits, but the only side effects are vomiting, depression, excessive sleepiness and loss of balance.
None of the other medications should cause otic issues either, especially since he's not new to taking them.
It sounds like your dog has possibly developed otitis externa on top of whatever he's taking the gabapentin and other medications for.
Pregabalin (Lyrica) is similar to gabapentin (Neurontin) and may be more effective, but usually kidney stones require opiates -- they can be quite painful.
best wishes.
I have had gastroparesis symptoms while taking gabapentin at a high dose for my muscular pain cause by gitelman syndrome (a rare kidney disease that causes kypokalemia) although hypokalemia can cause gastroparesis I don’t know if it is the gaba or the low potassium.
In the middle of the hospital stay, my dose of gabapentin was upped from 200mg a day to 400, and was also put on 50mg elavil since they thought it was a nerve problem. I was also having trouble urinating in this period as well. I'd have a terrible urge to go yet it wouldnt come out but eventually it would come out. We thought nothing of it because it occured after my endoscopy so we assumed it was anesthesia.
Since upping my dose of Gabapentin to 1600mg daily for Neuropathy and Migraines I am retaining fluid and I have to push to pee. I am drinking lots and lots of water to counteract the swelling but wonder what the having to push to pee means.
Thanks for your info on how Trileptal works for Tregeminal Neuralgia.
I would be interested to see how it works with other people as well, in place of Carbamazapine and Gabapentin so I have some ammunition when I see my neurologist. I don't think Gabapentin is doing much if anything for me, I am currently taking 2700 mg per day in addition to Carbamazapine.
s important to point out that both galliprant and gabapentin will both be having an adverse effect on kidney function. Sadly, these are difficult choices we have to make as owners, and by veterinarians too. Trying to deal with one health concern often means we give medications that will cause problems for another one, and that's the case here with these two medications.
He used Atenlol and various other tablets suggested by ESI for blood pressure and NeurokindG (Gabapentin and Mecobalamin Tablets) for his disc problem.

For copax, there is a small percentage of patients (2%) in after marketing studies who experienced kidney or flank pain, and I read about an instance of kidney failure, but seen no reference to the actual percentage or instances of how many. I'll dig for the source for you if you are interested.
As far as provigil, you may find more information if you look for post marketing adverse reactions,kidney/renal (as key words) problems for modafinil.
What kind of doc looking into this for you?

Hi there. There are no documented interactions between these two drugs. Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant which is also indicated in diabetic neuropathy. Common side effects are dizziness, ataxia, fatigue, nausea and vomiting, joint pain, motion sickness etc. You must tell your physician if you are allergic to valacyclovir or acyclovir. any kidney disease, blood disorders, immune deficiencies, dizziness etc.
all might remember me as the relative newcomer who asked about flank and abdominal pain/discomfort and kidney issues. Well, I finally had a CT scan and my urologist has ruled out kidney stones or other kidney issues as a source of the pain.
The pain/discomfort is still there, basically just below my waist. It extends all the way around my torso some days and is pretty much constant.
As a frequent maker of kidney stones (20+yrs) I have for the last 4 years have been operated on approximately every 6 months for stone removal the last 3 times I have been fitted with jj stents which cause me absolutely agony ,I am unable to work with these stents inside me and have now lost my job .am I unusual in having this agony ?the specialists all seem to think I should be able to cope. How long do people put up with the agony before going to a&e?
Hello, I am new to this group. I have had more than 85 blood tests since I was diagnosed with Lyme in July of 2014. All have been negative. I have been on may drugs for pain and currently on Gabapentin for vocal cord/coughing issues and leg pain (knee, calf, left side back). I don't think it is helping much. Is anyone else on Gabapentin?
Has anyone expierence swelling of the face with gabapentin? I know it can be a side effect. My question is; Is this an allergic reaction or is the dosage too much? Actually my face feels stiff at times and cheeks get sore. If it is the gabapentin, what would be the alternative? Thank you med help family........
Most of the individuals described in these reports had a history of poly-substance abuse or used Gabapentin to relieve symptoms of withdrawal from other substances. When prescribing Gabapentin carefully evaluate patients for a history of drug abuse and observe them for signs and symptoms of Gabapentin misuse or abuse (e.g. development of tolerance, self-dose escalation, and drug-seeking behavior).
I had an episode of burning on my forhead and cheeks and pins and needle feelings in which I started Gabapentin for. Over a 4 week period I gradually increased the dosage to what I am on now, 300mg three times daily. This seems to help greatly with the nerve pain but I started after 2 weeks to develop a very itchy neck, ear lobe, and face. My face sometimes looked like it was burned. Im just wondering if anyone has had this while taking Gabapentin.
Hi could anyone help me please?

Iv ad a BAD weekend and my sisters friend who has sufferd with fibro for 11 years, advised me try gabapentin as she swears by it making her much better. Has anybody tried this medication? she also says to use sea kelp?
Went to a new doctor today and he seems to feel the vicodene is no longer working so he had prescribed me gabapentin-100 mgs. three times a day. My concern now is withdrawing from the vocoden. doctor has suggested that I taper down to half a pill a week (of the vicodene). Of course I did not tell him how much I was taking of the vicodene.In searching this forum I have read different opions on the gabaperntin.
