NEURONTIN (GABAPENTIN)?
PLEASE READ BELOW...

The Ontario Superior Court of Justice has ordered the law firm of Siskinds LLP to distribute notice of a certification of a class action lawsuit to epilepsy organizations in Canada for distribution to their members in order to inform anyone using the anticonvulsant under the brand name of Neurontin® of the existence of this class action lawsuit. Individuals who use generic gabapentin are not included in the class action lawsuit. In order to accommodate this request we have posted the notice on our website www.epilepsysupport.ca. Click here (http://www.epilepsysupportcentre.com/sites/default/files/NeurontinNotice.pdf) to read the full notice. Please be advised that the Court has noted that the notice does not constitute medical advice. The Court has not at this time made any determination of the validity of the claims made by the plaintiffs. The Court has also warned that patients who have been prescribed Neurontin ® should consult with their physicians if they have any questions with respect to their medical condition and should not stop taking Neurontin ® without consulting with their health care professional.
