Can you smoke Gabapentin?

[dirzted]

Ok Ok Ok, first of all, NO I am not going to try this, nor do I advise anybody to do so, just curious.
Anybody know anything about this? Would it even work?

I dont think this is possible but stranger things have happened.What is it with man kinds need to smoke everything lol

 

[Swimmingdancer]

No it wouldn't work. Gabapentin has to be absorbed through the small intestine. Only take it orally.

Why would you want to smoke a powder'd drug which is fully active at 500+mg? It seems like a lot of work even if it was possible, I don't see any reason why anyone would even consider this.

Gabapentin is the wonder drug. I'm on it for my bipolar and there has been nothing that has helped me as much as the gaba's have. I would like to try lyrica but, I don't have pain.....Has anybody seen the commercials of saying that Lyrica is more likely to be abused by ppl with a addiction problem. They used to never cover that part!.

Haha alright ya that's what I thought

Thanks for the laugh OP...when you started your first post with "ok ok ok" you already knew they were going to have a field day lmao!!!

I take gabapentin, and nothing has ever helped me for anxiety/panic disorder and bipolar2-(what's the difference from, say plain bipolar was my first question lol), but now, that its handled it makes sense.

And lyrica is, for a lack of a better way to say it, like a condensed form of gabapentin. Much stronger....but...tolerance builds very quickly. I am prescribed both....which is actually unusual. Gabapentin did nothing for me pain wise. I save Lyrica for bad pain days for fear it will stop helping.

OP, glad you got your answer. The title of your thread definitely got my attention.
