United KingdomAsk forNeurontin (mostly sold generic)Controlled (Rx)
A Class C controlled substance in the UK since 2019 because of rising misuse. Expect controlled-drug handling: harder refills and stricter pharmacy rules.
SingaporeAsk forNeurontinRx only
Registered with the Health Sciences Authority (SIN08303P/SIN08302P) as Prescription Only. It is not classified under Singapore’s Misuse of Drugs Act, so an ordinary prescription is enough. The UK, by contrast, made it a controlled drug in 2019.
