Gabapentin is being prescribed in the UK for anxiety. Despite my warnings, it does have its place and on balance I don't regret using it. I was luckier than many with the gut issues. Although I felt really nauseous when I first started taking it, ginger tea helped, and after a week or so that side effect had gone away.
What we've clearly established in this thread is that the side effects and addiction issues are seriously underestimated. As for Pfizer, well there is a long history of big pharma claiming things are non addictive, only to concede they were addictive at a later stage. Valium is an obvious example, but did you know heroin was actually marketed as a cure for opium addiction?!
