Hello,
The maximum daily dose of Gabapentin is 3600 mg in 3 divided doses. So there should not be any confusion regarding the dose.
If you are taking more than the maximum recommended dose, I will suggest please talk to your neurologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
