I fell from my two wheeler 6 months ago and hurt my knee. X-ray was normal. Still had pain while folding leg or climbing stairs, jogging etc. So after mri of my left knee the report says ?anterior cruciate ligament shows mild sprain, grade-1 mcl sprain. Minimal joint effusion?. My doctor prescribed my medicine: tab dupact - 30 days gabapentin nt - 15 days. I google about gabapentin nt and found that it is used for seizures. I just want to know is it safe to take. (ps: I have also been given a knee brace)

You have ligament sprain, and you r symptomatic too, if after 6 month you r symptomatic then there might be little extensive injury than sprain. Get it clinically checked by arthroscopy surgeon, we have good treatment available, there is no need for you to suffer this long.

Gabapentin is not indicated in your case. You can stop if pain is under control with dupact.
