A member asked:
When taking gabapentin at night, i snore more than usual, to the point where i snore loudly and wake up due to changes in my breathing pattern. is this dangerous? should i consider taking it during the daytime and avoiding nighttime use?

Your description raises a strong suspicion of Sleep Apnea, and whether the gabapentin provokes or contributes is unclear. Contact your doctor and discuss if an overnight sleep study would be indicated.
