Neurontin, which is known generically as Gabapentin, may be linked to suicide and suicide attempts. Neurontin is prescribed for epilepsy but has been prescribed for numerous off label uses. Neurontin was approved for sale in the mid-1990s as a treatment for epileptic seizures. However, it is believed that approximately 80 percent of all Neurontin prescriptions were filled for unapproved medical conditions.

If you or a loved one was injured by Neurontin, please complete the free case inquiry form on the right side of this page.

saw a commerial yesterday about suicide and Neurontin

[color=blue][/color] I saw a commerial yesterday about suicide and Neurontin on TV. I wasn't aware that it make you depressed. I hadn't been aware and just recently I noticed myself crying, moodswings and such. I thought it was menopause. I've been taking Neurontins for 5 yrs.
I am jumpy, I go to sleep at 3am and wake up at 10am. I feel grumpy, tired, I sometimes just stare at the wall for a while, I cry, I feel very heavy(what I mean is I feel like the whole world is on my shoulders and I can't get it off).   :cry:  sad   I hate feeling like this :x  Any lawyers out there that can help me??
