Which of the following substance use disorders is most highly comorbid with gabapentin misuse?
The correct answer is C. Opioid misuse is the factor most strongly associated with gabapentin misuse. When gabapentin is administered in supratherapeutic doses (therapeutic dose range is 600 - 3600 mg/d), euphoric states can be achieved. Supratherapeutic doses of gabapentin can potentiate the effects of methadone and suboxone.
