CAUTION: The commercially available human liquid product contains xylitol which can be toxic to dogs. It is possible to have a special formulation made at a pharmacy that does drug compounding so that it does not contain xylitol.

Re: Xylitol in gabapentin (Neurontin)
Trooper takes Gabapentin for seizures....the xylitol is ONLY in the liquid form, not the tablets or capsules. If liquid is needed, talk to your pharmacist or have it compounded.
