Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic. I, Dr Abhishek Kapoor, would help you in this query.
The effective dose of gabapentin is 900 to 1800 mg/day and maximum effective dose of flurazepam is 30 mg/day. You can take both of these drugs at same dosage, but try not to further increase the dose. It could lead to side effects like arrhythmia, drowsiness, gastric upset etc.
In case, you need further help, you can ask.
