any advice on gabapentin?
 
Hi, I need some advice, someone I know has brought over gabapentin from the states and iv been told that u can kick opiates in no time, without withdrawals, but I'm currently on 20 mls of methadone so I don't know where I stand on this, if it will do the same job, or whether I shouldn't even bother...iv been on h for 12 yrs, n I'm now slowly cutting down on the meth, so if I can get off it quickly I'm there, I just want my life back, can n e 1 help?

Ask your doctor and don't take over the counter drugs from anyone. I looked it up, and its for seizures. Do you have seizures??

Go to your doctor.

My ex has started taking them cos I read on the internet that it works ans its a miracle cure. They are for all different things, my ex took 800 mg and he is here now saying be feels good and his not clucking, even though his had no meth or h, I'm more weary and do.t want to take n e thing I'm not sure of, I need to know if n e one else has done these for opiate withdrawals, and what the outcome was. Thanks for the advice though, I don't wanna take chances as I got 3 kids with me at home

I took that stuff around the 9th or 10th month of my post acute withdrawal and it made me really irritable.

We can't give you medical advice here I'm afraid.
