I was on 1500mg a day . I have gained 3-4 stone since taking it in the space of 18-24 monrhs, constant dry mouth, increased appetite and made me irritable . Had to keep getting it increased as found it stopped working or wasnt as effective .

Now on lyrica and has a far better effect on me for pain and less side effects . X

I am on 3600mg 3x a day. 1200 each dose, sorry. Confusion, can't remember anything. But it helps my pain so much. Good with the bad.
