Is it possible that the Gabapentin from a different lab is not as effective? I saw somewhere that the absorption levels can be different?

All input appreciated.
So - I realized this morning after comparing the pills in my pillbox with the new ones, that I actually have not started the new Gabapentin yet, so there goes my theory about the hot flashes, darn it! I hate hot flashes, they wreck your life...
