No, it doesn't. Nobody is certain what causes the disease, but it's not Gabapentin because that medication hasn't been around for as long as the disease has.
Yes..Gabapentin can cause weight gain.It causes me to eat more often and crave for sweets.
alzheimers
yes
No. Xanax XR does not cause alzheimer's disease.
I doubt it. It sure can make you feel like you've got alzheimers if you take a lot. LOL
Yes
Gabapentin is a medication that treats pain caused by shingles. Shingles is the reason you have been prescribed the medication.
Yes it can. I have experienced severe drowsiness from Gabapentin and even worse from Lyrica which are, according to my doctor, in the same drug family.
jaja yes
Gabapentin is not a sulfa drug, therefore your reactions to sulfa would not be related if you experience an allergic reaction. And, yes. Gabapentin (Neurontin) does cause weight gain for a great many users. Pregabalin, (Lyrica) not so much. Ask your Dr. if it might be a fit for you.
Don't neglect the possibility of badly managed medication.
In children, gabapentin may cause behavioral and emotional disorders. The drug should be used cautiously and the dosage should be reduced in those with severe kidney disease.
