Been taking it for neuropathy as my legs do jump or twitch. Started with 1800mg but reduced it to 600mg as I got too drowsy. It does help to calm down my legs though.

Started taking for nerve pain in my feet. took at night and next morning noticed a decrease in stinging pain. lasted a couple of hours but is more than many other drugs I have had to try. Helps in sleeping somewhat. Hoping I can go up in amount to get longer relief. grogginess in the morning but i can live with it.
