Hello, Carol Ann! How are you?

I'm happy to clear this up for you and provide information on these medications.

Neurontin contains the active ingredient Gabapentin, which is an anticonvulsant that's also used to treat certain types of nerve pain and mood disorders, but it is not a narcotic and doesn't work like a regular analgesic. However, since it is prescribed for pain, many people misunderstand this and think it will cause a high. Its side effects may include nausea, dizziness, weight changes and mood swings.

And Buspirone is actually used to treat anxiety and though it's in a different class, many people think it is a Benzodiazepine like Xanax, but it's actually an Azapirone, so it works much differently and isn't habit forming. Its typical side effects may include nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and nervousness.

Is there anything else I can help with?

I think you need to talk to your family dr or a therapist with your son. it sounds like he has anxiety problems and is attempting to self medicate. you can get a 'high' from gabapentin (neurontin) in certain doses but tolerance builds quickly and the ability to do so goes away within a day or two of taking the medication.
Buspar can not and will not give you a 'high'.
I dont think your son is seeking a recreational use of these drugs.
Please help your son and have him talk to a professional about his feelings.

Hi neurontin i am told people take with opiates to intensify their high. Buporine is suboxone which is to help with withdrawal and suppose to help cravings for opiates. Not a good combination of medicine to mix im not a Dr but have family that are addicts . Best of luck
