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

I stopped cold turkey and now have been itching for two days like crazy.

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.

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.
