Does taking neurontin long term affects brain chemistry in any way?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If the Neurontin has been prescribed by your Psychiatrist or Neurologist it is best to discuss it with them because they know your medical history. If you do not have confidence in your Doctor please see another for a second opinion.
