I lose weight on Gabapentin, and have less appetite, and my weight stays stable. Does anyone else lose weight on Gabapentin?
YES I STARTED TO TAKE GABAPENTIN AND HAVE LOST A COUPLE OF POUNDS. I ALSO HAVE SWELLING AND ACHES AND PAINS. IS THIS A NORMAL REACTION?
Swelling in the extremities (including the face) is a common side effect. Some aches and pains are also common so I wouldn't worry too much. Do check out the list of side effects on the leaflet that came with your medication. If side effects are causing you distress you should discuss your concerns with your doctor. x
