Definitely helps with neuropathic pains. Advil does not touch skin pain but a few days of Neurontin can. It might make you a little tired though.

Advice & Tips
I was never sure why they gave me this medicine. It helped with sleep a little, but gradually did nothing. Doctor said I could stop without weaning off. I couldn't tell any difference.
Cost

Aug 01, 2010
Advice & Tips
It helped with sleep for awhile, but then I couldn't tell what it was doing, except possibly contributing to "depersonalization." Suicidal thoughts went away after I stopped taking it.

Advice & Tips
It did not help me in any way. I noticed my vision becoming blurry several months ago, but didn't realize it was elated to this drug. After a week off of it, my vision is clear again. It seemed to make my depression worse.
