The most common gabapentin (Neurontin) side effects are dizziness and drowsiness. This may affect your ability to drive or perform other activities. Other gabapentin side effects include edema (fluid buildup), weight gain, and eye problems, but these aren’t as common. Rare but serious gabapentin side effects include mood changes in children. My 13 year old male rough collie (neutered) is taking a couple pain meds for arthritis (gabapentin, cartrofen, meloxidin) but he's been having near constant diarrhea. We ran out of gabapentin over the Christmas holidays and he seemed to be more energetic and and more solid stools. Thinking about nixing the gabapentin from his regime. Gabapentin may cause side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and dizziness. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and seek medical attention if experiencing serious side effects or changes in mood or behavior. Gabapentin is prescribed by healthcare professionals and should only be taken under medical supervision. My dog was prescribed gabapentin in combination with an SSRI for reactivity and we actually discontinued it after a couple of weeks because she started showing signs of bad side effects. Increased anxiety, diarrhea, vomiting - she even threw up blood at one point!! I was terrified, so stopped giving it to her & the symptoms immediately stopped. The only time I've heard of diarrhea from gabapentin is when you're withdrawing from it or if you overdose a symptom is diarrhea. Of course I'm not a doctor. I just haven't heard of this. Started her on the Gabapentin. Supposed to be 2 a day for 14 days. Today she has been sedated. Struggling walking and not eating! She is drinking water though. Gave her some bone broth that she loves and she didn’t want it. Now she is just having diarrhea like a mad women and after a few rounds of that, it has escalated to blood in her Studies have found that up to 15-25% of people taking gabapentin experience diarrhea while around 5-10% develop constipation. It’s thought that gabapentin impacts bowel function through its effects on calcium channels and opioid receptors in the GI tract. I think the type of gabapentin that is prescribed could be an issue. There are forms of gabapentin that have an ingredient that dogs can’t have. There’s one dog we fill for at my pharmacy that is prescribed liquid gabapentin because it doesn’t contain the ingredient dogs can’t have. Some side effects of gabapentin may occur that usually do not need medical attention. These side effects may go away during treatment as your body adjusts to the medicine. Also, your health care professional may be able to tell you about ways to prevent or reduce some of these side effects. I just started taking gabapentin 300mg 3x daily for anxiety alongside citalopram 20mg. This morning I had nearly liquid stool, without any gut aches, although as the day progresses im experiencing more intestinal discomfort and gas, with smaller amounts of diarrhea. I have been waking up every morning with diarrhea (2-4 trips to bathroom) for about the same amout of time, and my doctor claims the 2 are not related. I cant remember having a normal bowel movement since beginning the gaba and am wondering if anyone else may have had the same experience? Last weekend, we did an experiment and tried it again. Took two gabapentin an hour before going downtown, ate fried chicken and mac and cheese (which DEFINITELY should've given me diarrhea), drove backgot slightly nervous when we hit traffic (out of habit more than anything) but again, peace. Welcome to /r/gabapentin, here we primarily discuss issues pertaining to the medical, prescribed use of Gabapentin, Lyrica and Phenibut, as well as other Gaba related drugs. This IS NOT the subreddit for discussion of how to get high or otherwise abuse GP. It sounds like you have a good plan to test your cats' reaction to gaba before the trip. There are several alternatives, it's best to talk to your vet and mention what the issues with gaba were, and they will for sure provide one, based on your cats' medical history. hi there! i took my cat (3yo male named mash who i adopted 3 weeks ago) to the vet a couple days ago. vet had me give him 100mg of gabapentin first. i mixed it into a churu. by the time we got to the vet, he had diarrhea. over the next few hours, the diarrhea got worse, he lost bowel continence, was just leaking diarrhea continuously for about 30 hours. i’m feeding him plain chicken and rice I was prescribed gabapentin starting at 100 3X per day. I've read some horrific reviews of this drug including some patients who experience horrible diarrhea. I was wondering if anyone had experiences with this drug either positive or negative. So my old man kitty who thinks he’s still a young guy recently had some eating issues and didn’t use his litter box. we found out he has some arthritis pains in his rear legs so our vet put him on 0.25ml of gabapentin in a liquid form. for the first 2 weeks I was able to squirt it into his wet food (salmon - his favorite) and he’d eat it right up. for the past few days he refuses to take There is some research that suggests that Gabapentin does help with reducing rectal mechanosensitivity and increases compliance in patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowels. Here are a couple of sites that I found to show you some data: Talk to your doctor or your pharmacist can recommend remedies that don't interact with gabapentin. I have been on gabapentin for 3 months now. I have had diarrhea every day since. Depending on the food I eat makes me run to the bathroom. If you experienced diarrhea from Gabapentin, did it go away? What dose were you on when the side effect started and how long did it take to go away? I just increased from 900mg daily to 1200mg and my GI is feeling it. Still having RLS symptoms starting around 8pm with major sleep difficulty.
