I haven't been diagnosed with BP, but I have depression and MS and when I started taking gabapentin for nerve pain, it improved my mood. I wasn't expecting a good side effect, lol.

I also took it for muscle pains. So I'm not sure how it works for other
things. I would keep a eye on things. Its how it works for you. Donna |

Gabapentin has been prescribed for lots of things.
It did not pass the trials to be marketed as a mood stabiliser but some people find that it works. |

My main mood stabilizer is Seroquel now, but I'm maxed out. When my mood starts to shift, my pdoc adjusts the dose of gabapentin I take, and it's been working really well for me. Please keep us posted on how things work out and how you're doing |
