A member asked:
Is gabapentin and tramadol okay to take long term ? only just started with gabapentin a week ago. for burning prickly nerve like symptoms in legs.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is OK: There is no interaction and it is a good combo for neuropathic pain management for a long period of time. It is very important to follow your doctor's dosing instructions exactly. Your doctor may gradually increase your dose so your body can get used to the new medication and minimize possible side effects. Do not self medicate.
