The risk of stopping it quickly is a problem because it is an anti-seizure medication and if you do not slowly go off there is a risk of seizure. Find a physician for your long term care.

CTS: Get a splint from Walgreen's or CVS for you wrist and wear it night and day except to bathe. Elevation may help. The Gaba is a unique use but logical.
