Cramping or pain in a leg caused by poor blood circulation. This condition is frequently caused by hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis). Intermittent claudication occurs only at certain times, usually after exercise, and is relieved by rest.
RESULTS: 22% (29/129) of respondents admitted to abusing gabapentinoids, and of these, 38% (11/29) abused gabapentinoids in order to potentiate the 'high' they obtained from methadone. CONCLUSIONS: Gabapentinoid abuse along with methadone has not previously been described.
I am taking 300 mg gabapentin TID for generalised anxiety. This has been very effective, but I suspect that I can safely cut back. The only side effects I have are weight gain and periodic drowsiness (about one hour after taking the med).
