Now this meets with what I experienced on neurontin. They put me on a low does for THREE Days and my hostility and anger wne off the charts and I was extrememly agitated and could not sleep. They yanked me off of it VERY FAST!!! I was inpatient at the time and they saw the sudden escalation. And they had known me over several years and know i am a very mellow laid bacvk person normally. I told them I was feeling odd and did not know what was going on with this anger issue. They told me it was the meds. Took a week after just to get the agitation down after only three days on it. It really affected me . I was terrified my anger would be out of control easily because I am not used to handling anger in a trapped environment . I normally remove my self from situations where i am getting just irritated. But that one had me in a space that made being around anyone intolerable. So they put a absolutely dont use this med in my charts LOL. They just used ativan to help me control the problems with the days after they pulled the neurontin so I could stay calm enough until the crud was out of my system. Scary stuff !!
