I am a grief counselor and taking care of a 50 year old female who has spent the past two weeks in a psychiatricunit and released several days ago. One of the medications prescribed is gabapentin with a daily dosage of 2400 mgMy question is this
Hello The symptoms in your patient in unit were seeing people who were not there, imagining flying objects and incoherence are definitely not normal. She was having hallucinations. For treatment of hallucinations and other psychotic symptoms' management with antipsychotic Chat Doctor.  Gabapentin is not an antipsychotic medicine. It is currently mainly used in neuropathic pain. Decreasing or increasing the dose may have effects, but certainly hallucinations are not one of them. I would like to know about her other medicines also. Thanks
