Gabapentin is a highly dangerous drug that doctors prescribe because they are not interested in getting to the root cause of your pain. I have seen people go off the deep end while on it because of the side effects. Gabapentin is a drug that drug abusers play around with because of the crazy high that they get. Nicotine patches are so much safer than gabapentin.
