Neurotnin - Bipolar Disorder Message Board

Hi,
Are any of you on neurotnin? Do you like it? What symtoms does it relieve? Are you on any other meds with it?

I was reading about it, and it sounds good. It doesn't sound like there are bad side effects.

I should mention that I'm on Klonopin. My Dr. said I could try it if I want.
Thanks

It really is better used for nerve damage pain I take it for pain leftover from surgery but i think they have tried it as a mood stabilizer and it was not too promising. It doesn't interact with other meds and not too many side effects either. Idunno, I am just not too impreessed with it.It may be better for the pain left over from shingles or something. But this is just all my opinion and experience with it.

I had a a great deal of success with neurontin as a mood stabilizer. I am on kind what I call a psychtropic cocktail, plus thyroid and asthma medication and it mixed quite well with the other drugs. Also I didn't notice any side affects.
