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.

neurontin and hair loss

I have been prescribed neurontin for nerve pain in my leg related to a ruptured disc, I haven't experienced much in the way of side effects, I have been on 1200 mgs for 6 weeks, but have noticed an abnormal amount of hair loss over the past week and a half... I'm femail and terrified of losing my hair... I can't think of anything else that may have caused this ... has anyone else experienced this side effect from neurontin?
