Benzos Gabapentin

[tuputts]

Is gabapentin or soma useful with xanax withdrawal.

 

[Conky]

Yes but it won't be enough on its own most likely

Xanax is potent fast acting benzodiazepine so depending on severity of withdrawal Diazepam and Lorazepam may be needed

Yep. Gabapentin saved my arse in two ways
1.) Took away the fear of seizure, and
2.) knocked down my wd symptoms from a 10 to a 2-3 just when I felt like I might be forced to tap out.
I never needed more than 300-600 mg and I used it very sparingly after 3 days or so. Mainly when wd symptoms got really intense.
I'm not sure there is a lot you can build in way of your benzo toolbox, but gabapentin/ pregabalin (many people tout pregabalin which is basically a stronger version of gabapentin) is going to be a must, IMO.

I’m assuming opiates is your thing? Gabapentin by itself hasn’t done the trick for me. Ativan additionally works better than zanis. I have cold turkeyed (opiates, benzos, alcohol combo) using gabapentin 3000mg day and Gold Bali in high dose and could actually bare to go out and interact with people.
