When I first went on a med close to what Neurontin is I had to increase the dose with Drs help until pain subsided. Then we backed off until I was still pain free. So now I know if I have breakthrough pain how much I can increase temporarily. Example: I started out with 1 pill, gradually increased to 5 a day. By backing down to 3 a day I was still pain free. So now I know I can safely take two more pills if I need it. I know though that if I had to do that quite often I would need to call her.

Word of advice, each time I increased a pill I would have the fuzzy feelings for several days.
