Common Questions and Answers about Neurontin with valium

neurontin

Avatar m tn You should be OK on those things but I would not start at the full doses of L-Tyrosine. Build up 500mg at a time and see how you do. You shouldn't need the valium with the Flexeril. Neurontin sometimes has helped with w/ds so that should actually benefit you.
1602878 tn?1304336016 Even they are not 100% effective but they do give some relief. They also help with the spasms. Talk with your dr about which one would be best for you. Neurontin is also a nerve med but I didn't put it up as helpful because it caused me to be suicidal. Not everyone has that reaction though.
600857 tn?1230057770 The most commonly observed adverse events associated with the use of Neurontin in adults, not seen at an equivalent frequency among placebo-treated patients, were dizziness, somnolence, and peripheral edema. I am glad your Nuerolysis treatment has been completed. I hope you will soon have much less pain. Please let us know how you are doing.
Avatar n tn Neurontin is used to treat partial seizures and,also,nerve pain.It causes drowsiness and causes users to become less alert. It should not be taken with opiates due to increased effect. I guess if taken in larger doses it would just make a person tired and stupid. Not what It's intended for... Good luck getting your child away from this...
Avatar m tn I am now prescribed .5mg xanax 2times a day 20 mg of valium at bed time along with lexapro and trazadone (if needed). I am also prescribed 100mg neurontin 3 times per day in between the xanax to help with withdrawal symptoms. Is this a safe cocktail and is it hard to get off neurontin?
Avatar n tn yes requip could help or lyrica, but you would need to get that from a doctor and that would be harder if you already have everything from the thomas rrecipe, the valium if def. for that along with the extreme anxiety and insomnia, what are you detoxing from? the wrost of it should last three days and then the kicks should get better. by eachday, youre making the best decision of your life, best of luck and stick with it...
Avatar f tn s prison, neurontin was used often to treat anxity in patients who were very prone to abuse benzos like valium. That would be great if neurontin helped with opiate withdrawal because it has a very low risk of diversion-- in fact I don't know if I have ever heard of a person abusing it. Are there any readers who used neurontin for opiate withdrawal? If so, please share your experiences with us.
1472677 tn?1330175915 I detoxed off of Trazadone already and I think next will be Vicoden and I am scared for I am also taking altram, neurontin, and valium for pain and other ailments. If these can make my stomache hurt like this I want to get off them. I know I am going to need help for I have been taking Altram and nurontin for over 20 years now, vicoden 2 years and valium 3. Do I need help or can I di this on my own. Thank you and God Bless you all........
233622 tn?1279334905 I felt like I took nothing. I noticed that this also happens with ativan, and valium. Has that happened to anyone else, where your body didn't have any kind of change after taking them? It was so strange. I told the DR, and he just looked at me and said some people have been known to have that kind of reaction. Personally, I think my nervous system is so messed up with all the nerve pains, and shocks, and currents, and zaps.
Avatar f tn My doctor gave me Neurontin for my extreme restlessness from withdrawals. I find it to be really helpful. Most of my withdrawals symptoms are shaking, RLS, and the feeling of needing to get out of my skin. The neurontin has stopped that and has even let me sleep. I was wondering if anyone knows more about this medication. I did some reading on it but someone told me that it can cause changes in personality. I asked to pharmacist and he told me that it might cause some mood changes.
Avatar n tn Hi. I am bipolar and currently taking Lithium, Neurontin, Seroquel & Lamictal. I have only been on the Lamictal for about 7 weeks, starting @ 25mg & every 2 weeks adding another 25mg; thus I am currently @ 100mg per day.
Avatar m tn Flexeril helps for a short term and helps then with sleep. I am also on NSAIDS. BUt finally got on a new transdermal cream with Ketamine and Ibupropin. You can't take Ketamine orally or you get hallucinations and Ibupropin kills my stomach. So far the cream has helped some. I would like to know more about your symptoms and what happened. Because it sounds similar.
Avatar f tn Thanks for sharing your experiences. I have to admit that your story about having to withdraw from your meds cold turkey brought tears to me. I can't imagine what you went through and am glad you came out ok. I was under the impression that Neurontin, Gabitril and Lyrica are all basically the same medicine, so it's good to know that while one may not work, another might. if you don't mind my asking, what do you mean when you said Neurontin made you crazy?
Avatar m tn When I started the Morphine, I stopped taking the Valium completely as I was afraid of the added Central Nervous System depression when combining Morphine with the Valium. Since Valium has a half life of 50 - 72 hours, I didn't feel the withdrawal until 3 days later when I was driving home from work. I had a massive panic attack and it felt like I was going to die. I have never felt anything that extreme in my life!!! When I took 1 mg of Valium, it went away.
Avatar m tn Myself, like many others here found a time when my consumption was much, much, higher. I have tapered down to 3-4 per day and currently am detoxing at home with the help of Valium, Xanax, and non narcotic pain relief. My question is this is the first time I have attempted detox since the taper, prior attempts while my consumption was high lasted no longer than 3 days before I went back to the pills.
Avatar f tn None of my neuros would prescribe anything for me so I talked with my gp and got my meds set up. Also meds like xanax or valium work great as a muscle relaxers and help with spasms and are a take as needed not daily.
684676 tn?1503186663 I started taking gabapentin 6 months ago. I hate taking it. To me it's a nasty drug, but I still take it, for now. Have pain issues and it helps. It's pretty much divided on whether it's addictive or not. The textbooks say yes, but most people I have heard from didn't have a problem stopping it. it helped me with Valium withdrawal. Was originally Rx'd 900mg, but never took that much. Now taking 200mg at night only for sleep.
600857 tn?1230057770 I have been prescribed many meds, Baclofen, Percocet, Valium, Ibuprofen and now Nuerontin. I am scared of the Nuerontin, I have heard many bad things about it. My Dr says its fine. I have depression and anxiety issues and am afraid this drug will aggrivate problems. anyone have any experience with this? Please let me know. Thank you.
Avatar f tn Psychiatric meds makes them worse, especially SSRIs. I tried Neurontin and had success until week 2 when my jerks got stronger so I quit. I feel so left out with this and afraid to get worse. I had one period of a few months when they went away but came back. Other symptoms: Agonizing restlessness, sometimes tremor, stiffness in arms, internal vibrations in left leg that comes and goes (sometimes non existent for a few months), fatique, severe brain fog and so on.
Avatar n tn Hi, I have been on Percocet 10/325 along with Neurontin, Flexeril, Valium for about a decade. I was switched to 75 MCG Fentanyl patch 2 weeks ago. Valium was stopped 3 weeks ago. The 1st week I could not sleep at all. Drowsy, though. Shaky, cold. My doctor said it was withdrawal. Now at week 2, I sleep about 2 hours, very shaky, freezing cold, (I never get cold) Absolutely miserable BUT have great pain relief. Must stay in bed.
Avatar f tn I am on Nucynta ER 200mg, Nucynta, Valium for the headaches that everyday melodic am and methocarbamol. I had need surgery in April of 2011. I had a discectomy surgery at C4-C6 levels with infusion, but still have the neck pain can this be from my recent report. I need answers.
5597890 tn?1370629516 ve had 2 very severe heart attacks back to back. C.O.P.D . Peripheral Neuropathy. Also, would Neurontin help withdrawal?
Avatar f tn I have been to urgent care and returned to the dentist. She performed an xray and said the tooth is fine. I was first given Valium and Aleve for relief. The relief from this treatment last about 1 hour and the severe pain returned. I was then put on flexoril which takes the "edge" off for a couple of hours. I have switched to ibuprofen which has provided more relief than the Aleve. The dentist says that I have muscle spasms in my jaw and this should go away.
Avatar f tn Prickling sensation all over the body - HELP! I get these prickling sensation all over the body ( even in my private parts ) .They are not painful , just strange. They come and go ( started about 5 years ago ) then stop for some time and come back. I also experience small "electric like current " again not painful.
