Default Neurontin

Hi there (new member)

Does anyone know if neurontin is useful for occipital neuralgia?
I have just started taking it and when I took it years ago I could only take 300 mg per day due to side effects. The pain doc said that I have to take 900 mg per day to be effective for nerve pain. Has anyone found this drug helped at lower dosages?

If anyone has any suggestions for medications for severe nerve pain (my nerve pain is from occcipital neuralgia) I would appreciate any input.

Thank you. Nice to meet everyone.

Julie
