So i'm hearing on the news lately about the new female viagra or whatever... So.. first thing I thought of was...all they need is gabapentin.
first off....yes, i'm a guy. But i've heard it's a similar 'feeling' with women.
The funny thing is, if you google "gabapentin orgasm" .....ALL the articles are completely opposite , and talk about how it reduces their libido.
which I found mind boggling since, I had my most ever in a 24 hour period while being on gabapentin.
so...which is it, and why do so many feel opposite? Gabapentin (at higher doses) is known to cause a euphoria state, make people more sociable ,etc.

A small number of postmarketing cases report gabapentin misuse and abuse.[1] Although the rationale for abuse is unknown, some individuals describe "euphoria, improved sociability, a marijuana-like 'high', relaxation and sense of calm."[1] Other patients report feeling "zombie-like.
In 2004, a report described gabapentin misuse in correctional facilities in Florida.[3] A recall of all gabapentin prescriptions at one of the larger correctional facilities revealed that only 19 of 96 prescriptions were in the possession of the intended patients. Subsequently, 5 inmates reported they were inhaling the powder from gabapentin (300 or 400 mg) capsules intranasally. All 5 inmates had psychiatric or pain diagnoses, as well as histories of cocaine abuse. Four of the 5 inmates reported obtaining an altered mental state or "high" similar to that from cocaine. Gabapentin was removed from the formulary, and prescribing was restricted to exceptional cases. There was no further evidence of abuse. Gabapentin has been removed from formulary in other correctional facilities as well.[4]
A 2007 report[5] described the case of a 67-year-old woman with mood disorders and a history of alcohol abuse who was prescribed gabapentin (as well as naproxen and amitriptyline) for pain from polyneuritis. Owing to tolerance, she was prescribed 4800 mg/day (over the maximum recommended dose), but further escalated her intake to 7200 mg daily. She requested gabapentin without a prescription from pharmacists and visited numerous physicians, exaggerating her symptoms, to obtain the desired quantities.
