gabitril (tiagabine)

SWIM has had a bad benzo habit for almost 15 years. This person is being reduced gradually on their dose of clonazepam but is still on lorazepam from another doctor. The doctor who is weaning this person off the klonopin has started her on gabitril, as she does suffer frum true anxiety. so far the gabitril seems to help( even though it has only been three days). This SWIM is wondering if others struggling with the same type of addiction were ever prescribed this drug (gabitril) and what the results were. Thanks in advance.

Here's the Wiki link to information about this substance, so others can quickly get info to help answer Swiy's question, which Swim can't help with, sadly.
