    This is a great article. I’ll add it to my blog post about your website in the section about medications. Being informed is being empowered with the knowledge to help us to make decisions for ourselves.

    I was recently in the hospital and was given 200 mg Darvocet and 15 mg Dilaudid for pain. It worked very well. It was the first time I had ever been given two painkillers at one time.

    Here Neurontin is identified as a tricyclic antidepressant, but you list it under anticonvulsants. Which is it?

    Neurontin is an anticonvulsant. I think the abstract for the research study meant adding lamotrigine to one of 3 conditions, 1) Neurontin, 2) a tricycle antidepressant, or 3) another non-narcotic medication. Hope that clarifies it.
