frustration about not being able to sleep through the night and the neuropathy in my feet hurt like heck. I am on gabapentin and mirtazapine and my pharmacist/and ID specialist have me taking the mirtazapine at 6pm rather than the 60mg at bedtime.

Gabapintain is a mild drug with short lifespan in the system. This means that your doctor/pharmacist need to know that you aren't getting the effect that is needed.

@A myHIVteam Member before you were on Lyceria did you try Gabapinten? I am currently on Gabapintain but I have little to no relief on this drug.
