Gabapentin for Pain: Headaches Persisting

✋ Hi I take the same amount of Gaba. I was up to 1200, but have backed down to 300 in the morning, and 600 at night. I, too, get migraines occasionally, and understand the importance of nipping them in the bud. But I did want to share that there is a thing called "rebound headache," which happens to some ppl after coming off a high dose of a med they've taken regularly. So the Gabapentin may not be the cause of the headache- the sudden drop in Tylenol might. Can you take something different, like ibuprofen, for the headache? I know not everyone can. Or maybe wean off the Tylenol slowly? I'm hoping you won't need it eventually. Your poor liver needs a rest. 💕

I am also on this medication and suffer from chronic migraines. I have recently also been going to a chiropractor and this has made my headaches occur less often and almost completely be gone.

Oh, I'm sorry. I bet that does hurt. I take my gaba at night, this way if I get sleepy, I won't have to fight it at work. I'm glad that it does help you. It helps me too.

Don't take so much Tylenol. I take gabapentin for pain too. My dosage is only 100mg 3x daily and I take mine only at night, I don't like feeling loopy.
