Sedation and Drowsiness: One of the most common side effects of gabapentin in dogs is sedation or drowsiness. Dogs may appear lethargic, sleepy, or less alert than usual. It is important to monitor your dog's behavior and adjust the dosage if excessive sedation occurs. Ataxia and Lack of Coordination: Gabapentin can affect a dog's coordination and balance, leading to ataxia, or the inability to control movements properly. Dogs may have difficulty walking or appear unsteady on their feet. This side effect is more likely to occur when dogs are first introduced to the medication or when the dosage is increased.
