The connection between the anti-epileptic seizure medication Neurontin and suicide has not been proven decisively. With the bulk of Neurontin prescriptions written for non-FDA approved uses, and no full clinical trials regarding the potential outcomes of the use of Neurontin in patients who are being treated for conditions such as bi-polar disorder, it is difficult to fully investigate the possible link between Neurontin and suicide.
Regardless, a number of persons whose loved ones were taking Neurontin at the time of their suicides are demanding answers. If Neurontin and suicide are found to be linked, the manufacturer may be held liable for the deaths of patients who commit suicide while taking Neurontin.

A lawyer familiar with new developments in the investigation of Neurontin and suicide may be able to help you make important personal and legal decisions.
