Does anyone out there take this medication for chronic pain? My starting dosage is 300mg at night 1st 3 days, then 600 mg for 3 days, then up to 900 mg a day. Does it have any side effects? Any information would be appreciated. Thanks, Robin Hi, I'm new to the board. I also take Neurontin, but for chronic back pain. Neurontin is a drug that is usually used as an anti-seizure drug. It has also been successful in treating chronic pain, & I have had very good results from it. Previous to using this, I had horrible lower back pain 100% of the time. After just one day of using Neurontin,(the same doseage you take)it was like a miracle! The pain had almost vanished, & I physically felt much, much better. I haven't noticed any side effects as yet. I was also told the doseage can be increased considerably, as needed. I wish you luck with this drug, I hope it will also give you refief from your pain!
