Members shared their experiences with tinnitus while taking gabapentin, with most describing doses ranging from 1,800 mg to 2,500 mg daily and one member having been on the medication for over a decade without issue. Several members clarified that their tinnitus appeared to be linked to amitriptyline rather than gabapentin, with one recalling that loud ringing began shortly after increasing their amitriptyline dose to manage migraines. A recurring theme was the careful balancing act of adjusting medications to manage pain while minimizing side effects, with members expressing hope that dose reductions might help and offering mutual support through the trial-and-error process.
