I use baclofen or valium.

Valium (5mg dose) is a bit strong for it usually, so I break the valium up into either halves, or quarter sized bits. The Hug is from the intercostal muscles spasming, so a muscle relaxer or antispasmodic is what I'd reach for before reaching for neurontin. (I also can't take neurontin. It causes me to swell up with edema. Not an allergic response of edema. But fluid of some sort)

consult the doctor about what to take tho. Because I'm not a doctor. Just an MSer.
