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 KILLS!! DON'T TAKE IT!!!!!

My father committed suicide 10/14/2004. He had never even been depressed! The Dr. gave it to him for pain. He took it for about 6 mos. and first it caused him not to be able to walk. He lost strength in his muscles. Then one night he rolled himself outside and shot himself!! I found him a few minutes later, with his brains and blood still hitting the ground!!! Tell me Pfizer, what amount of money in the world will get this out of my head?????!!!! More than 160 people have committed suicide while taking Neurontin for these off label uses, and more than 2000 people have attempted suicide that had never attempted it before taking this poison! Why is this drug still being prescribed??? MONEY!! And they don't care who they kill to get it! If you are taking this drug --PLEASE STOP!!!! or you & your family could have your lives ruined too!!!!
