FDA & Neurontin/Gabapentin | ADHD Information

Share
The FDA just announced another investigation into this medication drug causing suicidal thoughts and possibly increasing suicide risk.  I have recommended it in the past in another forum for an "off-label" use--controlling rage, as follows:

A Medication related note:  if you are at a point were your temper too far out of control.... as in being enraged or completely unable to predict or control your anger I would recommend looking into getting a prescription for Neurontin/Gabapentin.  It is an anti-seizure medication that is also acts as a mood stabilizer. A number of years ago I had a period where I had bouts of rage that were quite frightening and would have ended my marriage except for my wifes strong commitment to me and my willingness and profound desire to 'find a cure' for my emotional explosiveness.  I still take the medication at a much lower dose and I find that it makes my life a bit smoother than otherwise.

 
My recommendation still stands but I feel one should read more if interested.  Here is one link to a recent article on the subject.
