You can go to its website http://www.neurontin.com and read what they have to say. I would also check out http://www.drugs.com and http://www.rxlist.com for less biased info.

I had to take it once for nerve pain, but it didn't do anything for me. It is a drug used to treat seizures and nerve pain after a shingles outbreak.
Common side effects include, extremity swelling, dizziness, constipation, etc.
They're just common side effects and nothing to be concerned about.

Lisa, I've been using Neurontin for almost five years. I haven't noticed any adverse side affects. The greatest benefit I can see is the non narcotic nature of the drug. No withdraw.

I had no side effects while using neurontin. It simply was not very effective for my problem.

If you go on WebMB it can provide information on the drug from experts.

You can probably find the answer you are looking for at "Wikipedia".
