Is Gabapentin Messing With Our Brains?

Whoa, gabapentin—the go-to for nerve pain and restless legs—might be linked to a higher risk of dementia, especially in younger adults. A new study found people 18-64 taking it were over twice as likely to develop dementia or memory issues. The more prescriptions, the higher the risk. Researchers aren’t saying it’s the cause yet, but if you or someone you know is on gabapentin, it might be worth chatting with your doc about it! #Health #BodyHealth #Gabapentin
