How much gabapentin can I take in one day?

[sdaffer]

I took some gabapentin earlier today (about 3.2g) and that was around 3:15. It's now 9:45 where I live. Is it alright if I take some more.. Maybe 2.5g or something. Just wondering if it would harm my body.

I am honestly not sure. You've taken more than the "medical" recommended daily amount obviously, but I don't know about recreational doses at high levels. I think it's not good to take high doses over a regular period as it can fuck with your gaba receptors but I honestly don't know if this would be safe or not as a one off. How much do you usually take?

Hopefully someone with more gabapentin experience can help answer your question

You can take a lot, its a very hard drug to O.D. on. I read somehwere of people taking 40 grams at once, but I wouldn't take more than 15 grams as absorption is a big issue. Often a lot doesent get into your system.

^i have no idea how much those amounts are or the answer to OP's question, but even though there are drugs you can take a ton of and not OD (a lot of the benzos for example), does not mean it is safe to to do so.
