Gabapentin/Neurontin: Gabapentin is a medication often prescribed for seizures and neuropathic pain. The half life for elimination in the ueine is 5 to 7 hours, regardless of dose, and may vary depending on your kidney function. It is not generally tested for during drug screening since it is not a narcotic.
