Neurontin In Generic form it is Gabapentin — 

Gabapentin which is generic for Neurontin is  medication recommended for several serious health problems including neuropathy for diabetics. It is available in capsules, tablets and an oral solution.

Therer are some serious side effects including dizziness, sleepiness, fatique and nausea. The side effects go on and on includng depression and possible dry skin problems.

Pregnant and  nursing mothers and people with any renal problems need to really way the good  with the bad.

My  personal experience is this is really a good medication for my needs. I am a diabetic and suffer from nerve damage in the feet and legs from neuropathy. The pain can really be dibilitating. It takes about  3 weeks of taking this medication before it starts working. I don't mind the side effects since I have sleep issues and it really doesn't affect me in any way derogatory. I've never suffered the nausea problem.

This medication can even be taken by chi;dren as young as 3! I would suggest you check the possible side effects but I would recommend Gabapentin.
