The dose of Gabapentine that you are using is within the normal ranges for a daily dose. So, it is OK to take this dose. But if seizures persist, I would recommend discussing with your doctor on making some changes to your current therapy (add a new drug like valproate  or lamotrigine). Regarding painkillers, gabapentine is a good drug against the pain. So, it is not necessary taking painkillers, because they may lead to serious medical complications if taken daily for a long time. Hope you will find this answer helpful!Kind regards! </s>
