Managed Care Matters: More on drugs in workers' comp Archives
Maybe if the insurance company NURSES didn't push Neurontin like crack, then there wouldn't be such a rise in insurance company costs. 1800-2700mg a day was the goal for us- 3500 if necessary. It was a HORRIBLE drug, and probably helped to create more disability and pain. The memory and sleep on this drug were non-existent- tired yes- sleep- no. Pain relief - ZILCH. Fucked up priorities. 3 months of the drug at high dose could have covered a hyaluronidase intrathecal series of shots. AAAARGH!!!
