I have a question and would appreciate any info anyone has. I have been on tegertol for awhile and recently my dr added neurotin 300 mg 3xs a day. I am on others as well so my question is I am having headaches and becoming dizzy, I know these are side affects but if anyone has been on this drug can you tell me if you experienced these as well and do they keep coming or eventually fade? I am finding it harder to function on meds, for my job I need to be alert and ready. Thanks

Lesley, I also had these side effects and for me they did subside. I also have to be alert at work and worried;) I still struggle with looking up fast and I doubt I dare go on a roller coaster without a sick bag but otherwise I cope fine. All the best.
Side effects and particularly dizziness may fade as you get acclimated to your meds. However, if you are on multiple meds, then your physician needs to do a check on drug interactions. You can do a basic check for yourself at drugs.com in their interactions checker on the left-side menu of their home page.
