What Are The Repercussions Of Taking Extra Dosage Of Gabapentin?
Can I overdose on gabapentin? I was prescribed 100 mg x3/ day for hypersensitivity under my feet and a severe burning feeling on areas of my skin (like shingles w/out the rash). But the symptoms remained. I increased my dose to 900 mg/ day and the symptoms stopped. I may have accidently tKen an extra dose , raising it to 1200 mg today. Is thAt dangerous?
Hello and welcome to Healthcamagic. This will not cause serious side effects and it may just lead Elton bit increased sleepiness and loss of concentration so you should not drive car and you should rest for 24 hours and take plenty of fluids. I hope I have answered your query. I wish you a nice day.
