gabapentin interaction with supplements

I just got prescribed gabapentin for restless legs syndrome, should I be concerned about interaction with any supplements?
 
I don't see anything specifically that is stated to have an interaction with the drug - but I would be careful with herbal supplements, and anything that is a nootropic or sleep inducer. Not saying they will interact, or that I wouldn't mix things...but I would be aware. I haven't had time to research the CYP metabolism of gabapentin, but you may want to look at that and see if anything else you take interacts. My feeling is that gabapentin is a relatively safe drug....

I bet Synapsin would have a much more informed response.

mostly herbals...the main one I am concerned about is macuna.

You can PM me if you want. L-dopa and gabapentin have been used before for individuals with parkinson's so there is no negative interaction, but I need to understand why you're on gabapentin to begin with, etc
