Found Perfect Gabapentin Dosing Schedule

Sorry if this is the wrong forum, I'm still pretty new here.

Anyways, a big problem with the drug Gabapentin (Nuerontin) is it's low Bio-Availability when a dose is consumed all at once. This dose is usually past the therapeutic levels to get a buzz or high and after some dosage x mg, the drug will not absorb nearly as much and you'll be wasting some of the drug.
So, what's recommended to potentiate the dosing is as follows:
Take it with a snack, space dosage out / break dosage up, consume with carbonated beverage, take with some naproxen, and in some studies it has shown that morphine increases the BA up to 44%, although that is risky due to the increased CNS depression, so stay away from that. Anyways, I seem to have found the perfect dosing technique, for me anyways. It is as follows.

Take your initial dose. In my case, I will be using 300 mg capsules and ingesting 1800 mg total. We're going to say the initial dose is at 1:00pm (13:00).
Initial Dose (1:00 pm) : Take 300 mg capsule with a few sips of Coca Cola.
Second Dose (1:30 pm) : Another 300 mg capsule with Coke.
Fifteen minutes after your second dose (1:45 pm, so 45 minutes after the initial dose), take 220 mg of Naproxen.
Third Dose (2:00 pm) : 300 mg capsule with coke.
In between your third and fourth dose, I recommend eating lunch. Something you like, as my first experiment with this regimen was with some mozzarella sticks I cooked in the oven. Worked out perfectly.
Fourth Dose (2:30 pm) : Right after you eat, another 300 mg capsule with coke.
Fifth Dose (3:00 pm) : 300 mg capsule with coke.
Sixth Dose (3:30 pm) : 300 mg capsule with coke.
And what I've found is the buzz starts to come on around 2.5 hours after the initial dose, maybe 3 hours depending on the individual. And I have several other findings I'd like to introduce that I've never read about before.

First finding: Usually one day in between dosing will be enough time for my tolerance to subside. During this day, however, I like to really hydrate and urinate quite frequently. As it's said Nuerontin is eliminated through urine, I figured this may just help get as much remnants out as possible. It could be a placebo, though I do have good results.

Second Finding: Whenever I excercise while buzzing on this drug, it will 100% kill the high. Doesn't matter how long into the buzz I am, it will leave me. I'm not sure if it's because you're sweating it out, your metabolism raises, or what, but I always end up disappointed with that. Not to mention it certainly doesn't help your coordination.


I just thought I'd share my personal findings. Maybe this will help others as well.
