gabapentin is not a great drug. It has been heavily promoted off label for almost everything. See Butchered by "Healthcare"

Tramadol is as bad. Son has it on his allergy list. So do I. What type of metal did they use when they did his Quad Bypass? Found out they gave him a massive dose of Steroids when he had the TIA. Which drove his BS up to over 600, and used insulin to bring it down, but hospitals don't think to check Eye Pressure in Diabetics, Eye Pressure, is now in the Glaucoma range. And his COPD inhaler is a steroid. Which he didn't think I should know about. No one told him not to take Steroids, Cortisones, or prednisone as a Diabetic. Nor if you have Glaucoma. Your ER contact needs that info. One 5 mg of Prednisone will double your Eye Pressure. Retinal issues will then be your next damage.
