Gabapentin Withdrawals Question
UpdatedI've been on Gabapentin for two days, taking 100mg twice. Will I have withdrawals if I stop taking it?

No, there should be any issues after such a short period of time on such a low dose.
Why are you stopping it, already?
The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, fluid retention, mood swings, and weight gain.
Okay, thank you. :)
I could be wrong but it seems as if Gabapentin only made things worse for me. The pain I was having prior to taking it, seemed to get more frequent. Also, my chest pain seemed to last longer than usual.
I stopped cold turkey and now have been itching for two days like crazy.

Try a histamine.
