Prescription or no prescription? I believe i have read you have to get it compounded and I know some labs are better than others. So if anyone just has any recommendations on how to acquire this and if I should even bother then I'd be very thankful.

I will let you know just started six days ago at 1.5 mg at night before bed - fast release, filler is Avicel. It was compounded for me. I had to educate my GP doctor in a nice way after trying a pain clinic which would only offer gabapentin. I did the research and brought her articles from reputable sources. I will start 2.0 mg this Sunday for 10 days and work my way up to 3.0 mg in 0.5 mg additions. So far no bad side effects. I think my mood has started to improve but that may be because someone is starting to work with me. This drug takes time to work and I need to be patient.
