Yes, I take it approximately every 5 hours. I take 1800 every day. Works both for anxiety and insomnia. 600mg 3x a day has worked for 3 years. I'm super sensitive to medications so 300 mg helped with my anxiety, 900 put me to sleep. I currently take 1200 mg gabapentin a day. Sometimes i feel like I don’t need that third or fourth dose of 300 mg tho. At 600 mg, most days, I am feeling fine and balanced overall, with little side effects apart from some brain fog. The typical dosage for gabapentin in treating anxiety ranges from 100 mg to 300 mg daily. Some common side effects of gabapentin for anxiety are dizziness, tiredness, and unsteadiness. Gabapentin’s off-label uses include treating generalized anxiety disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder. Because doctors prescribe gabapentin off-label for anxiety, there’s no specific dosage for treating anxiety symptoms. Your dosage will depend on your: A potential starting dose is 300 No one on reddit can assess what your dog needs, how large they are, what breed, the nature of the injury, etc etc from this post. For what it's worth, I give my 30 lb dog ~300mg of gabapentin for anxiety as needed (like around the 4th of July) as recommended by my vet. A short-term dose should not be an issue, but you should really call your vet. The Gabapentin is keeping my mind in a less black/white state I guess. It’s easier to find distraction from the panicked thoughts but it’s not like I’m anxiety free. I do feel like taking two pills at once works better than taking only one and I bet three would be great. So I am mindful not to overdo it and end up on a high dose. However, I did notice a side effect of it taking the top edge off of anxiety - a regular dose in the morning and at night made the difference between sweating palms and heavily intrusive thoughts about trauma being extremely distracting and these things not being extremely distracting. I just realized my scrip is actually for 2400, but I cut the morning 600mg dose because it made my me pretty useless. The combination helps with anxiety, and it helps me sleep, and it completely controls the chronic nerve pain that was starting to make me think about an early exit. Life-changing and life-saving in my case. For anxiety treatment, gabapentin is typically prescribed at doses ranging from 300 mg to 900 mg per day, depending on individual patient response and tolerance. Pregabalin, given its higher potency, is usually administered at doses between 150 mg and 600 mg per day, divided into two or three doses. I’ve struggled with anxiety for over 7 years. Tried many SSRI’s and SNRI’s and buspar. Minimal help. Supplemented with klonopin (posted this recently as a topic). I just started using 300 mg gabapentin (100 mg in morning and 200 mg) in evening). Seems to be helping. Anyone else using it? I have been prescribed 300 mg doses of gabapentin that I am approved to take up to three times a day for anxiety. I’m having a really bad bout of anxiety lately so I’m just trying to figure out the ideal timing on these doses. I just started Gabapentin for anxiety. I do also take 87.5mg Zoloft (I'm edging myself up to the goal of 100mg, slowly), and 150mg of Lamictal. I have dysthymia and GAD, with some social anxiety as well. Dr. Just started me on Gabapentin. I'm taking it for anxiety. I'm very sensitive to meds so he started me on 100 mg 3xday. Depending on how I feel, he will up dosage in 2 wks. Will I feel anything on this low dose? 1 like, 18 replies My doctor just prescribed me Gabapentin 100mg 3x per day for anxiety. She said she’s had much success with patients who can’t use benzos. And the online reviews are very positive. Has anyone taken it off label for anxiety? If so, what was your optimum dosage? And how long did it take to start working? Thank you! High dose Gabapentin worked 1000x better for my anxiety compared to lyrica. Lyrica increased my anxiety and gave me muscle spasms/jerks and made me feel like I was gonna have a seizure. It seems to work differently then Gabapentin somehow. Gabapentin is helpful to some people with specific pain problems as many in the comments are suggesting. However if you are getting TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) to treat depression and/or anxiety keep in mind gabapentin can actually reduce the efficacy of the treatment. I take 600mgs of gabapentin for anxiety 3xs a day in addition to 2 beta blockers that are also supposed to help ease the anxiety AND 1mg of ativan. The gabapentin is what they put me on most recently and it didn't seem to help much until my dose was significantly increased. I do very much believe it's helping now. Hi folks. I've been prescribed gabapentin for anxiety 100mg x 3 per day. I took it for a week and didn't even notice any slight difference. I know it's a low dose but not sure if I need to try higher doses without seeing any effect. Does gabapentin supposed to work immediately for anxiety or need to build up like for neuropathic pain? The research that has been done and the literature on the Gabapentin for anxiety is actually a pretty high dose upwards of 2400-3600mg to actually be chronically effective from what I’ve read. I never want to utilize said dose. Yup.prescribed. 900mg/day but usually only take 600 but with benzos too ( clonazepam and temazepam ) .. I was on lexapro for a few years which helped greatly but eventually the side effects outweighted any benefits the gabapentin helps a little but not that much and the weight gain is bad and hard to loose but thats the only side effect i get.
