Question Tapering off Gabapentin
Right now I am taking 1000 mg gabapentin daily. 100 mg in the afternoon and 900 at bedtime for leg cramps from idiopathic motor neuropathy.

After 7 weeks of physical therapy, I am having fewer symptoms and would like to start tapering down the gabapentin.

Has anyone done this? How fast should I go? I have prescriptions for both 300 mg capsules and 100 mg capsules, so I can fine tune my dosage.
