U r welcome, only wish I had known it too b4 I started...I had just gotten the IBS regulated with Miralax and the dr that RX'd the gabapentin said I would be fine......and today I took magnessium citrate to try and get cleaned out so the miralax can work.It does not help like it had b4 and I am miserable.
Talk with ur gastro dr about this.
Good luck

Thanks for the infor about the IBS. I will keep an eye out for worsening symptoms, since I am still having big issues with my IBS. I appreciate your telling me this important information.
I was taking the Gabapentin with Soma earlier in the year of 2008 since the gabapentin didn't work I stopped taking it. Thanks for the info though and hopefully you will get some relief with that bit of advice.
Hi,
..... in addition to that if neone on Neurontin or the generic Gabapentin be advised if u have IBS issues it can be affected by this med.
I was not aware of this and have been having issues for over 2 months since taking the meds.

Thank you for sharing this info. I read your response on the other post as well. I hope that you do ok with the Neurontin. At least, with this dosage, you can build it up if necessary. I'm glad to hear that taking the pain meds. earlier helped out.
Take care and feel better soon.
