I was taking gabapentin for nerve pain before and now im just over 6 weeks pregnant. Got really worried thinking about whether it's fine to continue. Planning to ask my doctor but wanted to hear if anyone else was on this.
For any prescription drug like this in pregnancy, the answer really depends on your condition and dose. Doctors weigh the benefit versus risk individually. Best thing is to ask the doctor who put you on it, or your obstetrician, before changing anything.
I cant advise on this one honestly, its a proper medicine. When I was on any tablets during pregnancy I always cleared it with my gynac first. Please call your doctor and ask specifically about this, dont go by community replies for medicines.
I wouldnt want to give a wrong answer on something this serious. Please dont take a community reply as a yes or no for a real medicine. Your gynac knows your history and can guide you properly on gabapentin.
This is really not something to decide on your own. Gabapentin is a prescription medicine and only your doctor can say if its needed and safe for you. Please dont stop or start it without talking to the doctor who prescribed it.
