Gralise is listed as just Gabapentin ER, whereas Horizant is listed as Gabapentin Enacarbil ER. I don't know what that means exactly.

What seems to be the difference between these two drugs? Can anyone tell me if it worked? Has anyone tried both?

Thanks.
I have been given 2400 mg Horizant for 3 days for neuropathy, after having tremors with lamictal 800 mg. Not sure if working yet or if insurance covers. Have you tried yet as i notice this is an old post. Any ideas???
