In reply to What is Neurontin for?, posted by Annie on March 17, 2000, at 0:15:05
Annie,
Neurontin was originally developed as an anti-epilepsy medication, but it is increasingly being used for a wide range of conditions: bipolar disorder (especially mixed or rapid cycling), certain anxiety disorders, and chronic pain are some of the major ones. No one is quite sure how it works but it does seem to help a lot of people--A drawback is that is usually has to be taken several times a day.
best,
jd
