It doesn't seem from the monograph listing, that these are common side effects:
I would suggest you speak to your doctor and discuss this as soon as possible, it could be this drug, an illness, or a combo if you are taking something else.
I have been taking 2400 mg (eight 300-mg tablets) a day of gabapentin for more than a year. I have a lot of double vision, though only when I'm tired (which is most of the time). Of course, I take a few other sedating medications as well. I've gotten used to the double vision, except when it happens when I'm driving!
If you google Gabapentin 300mg, you'll see that double vision is a side-effect. I have double vision when I am tired without the drug. I have just been prescribed it for nerve pain and am very concerned about taking it. Has anyone had difficulties coming off this drug?
i have only one eye and its not so great will gabapentin affect my eye i am concerned and does it contain any hint of prednesone i have foune for the past three days been on 900 mg a day to help with the nerve damage in my foot since my surgery three months ago all i do is cry i cant stnd it is this is a side side affect frome it my great concern is the eyes and it is seisure meds could i have a seizure fro it?
