A member asked:
Ive been on neurontin (gabapentin) 300mg twice a day due to cervical hnp for about 4months. planning to decrease dosage. any suggestion?

Decrease slowly: You should decrease it slowly (maybe decrease to 150mg twice a day first) to see if discontinuing it will make your pain worse. If you pain starts to come back then you need more time with the medication.
