Gabapentin long term effects on kidney
I have been taking Gabapentin 300 mg since 9 months for anxiety and insomnia issues. Now down to 100mg and planning to stop it completely in a month? As I am on Gabapentin for 10 months, would it cause any kindey related issues or would it have caused any kidney related issues?. I read that being on Gabapentin for long term will cause kindey problems. Kindly advise. I am bit worried
