Hello, Bee! How are you?

It is not the same thing, Gabapentin is just the name of it. The FDA classifies it as an anticonvulsant that is also approved to help with certain types of nerve pain and some mood disorders. Typical side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, mood swings and weight changes.

However, please double check with your doctor, but I doubt you have anything to worry about.

Is there anything else I can help with?
