Can i take gabapentin with buprenorphine?

Gabapentin : Both medications will make a person sleepy due to their individual side effects. When taken together they can increase the sleepiness. For your specific situation, your physician will take into account your risk and benefits of these medications, dosage, and your medical history. Please contact your physician for your specific situation.

Interaction : Caution is advised when taking both together. Buprenorphine dose may have to be decreased. The thought is that they both can cause central nervous system depressions. Make sure your prescriber knows any of your concerns.
