Default Pregabalin
Hi Roadrunner,
Pregabalin is a drug similar to Gabapentin with a similar effect but it is more easily absorbed and, hence, it is easier to get the correct dosage. You could try as small dose, such as 25 mg, and build up if you can tolerate it.

I haven't tried it. I am going to though, so let us know if you do try it.
Best of luck,
Concussed Scientist
