My cat has an inoperable liver pseudo cyst that causes him discomfort, and possibly a little pain. His vet suggested compounded Gabapentin, 2x daily. I have been reading that it is a drug that needs to be tapered off, like prednisolone, because of adverse effects of stopping it abruptly. This concerns me because I planned to use it only on days when it seemed needed. Does anyone have experience with Gabapentin given as needed rather than constantly? I don't think it's necessary for my kitty to be drugged up all the time unless I observe him in pain or discomfort. Thanks for any insight.
