It depends on your tolerance and metabolism. Take 200 - no more than 300 every 30 minutes (due to bioavailability) until you reach the desired effects. Don't overdo it as high doses can cause seizures in some people.

Its not like alcohol, its way nicer.
Take 300 mg every 40 min until you reach 900-1200 mg. Thats usually enough as a beginner. Otherwise keep doing it until 1800 mg. Taking caffeine will add to the sensation. I drink strong coffeee with the first dose and take 100 mg caffeine tab with dose 2 and 4. Thats good for me as i dont like too much caffeine.
Never take more than 300 mg at once as the body cant absorbe more than around 60% of 300 mg, 50% of 400 mg, 40% of 500 mg and so on. It gets wasteful fast. So 300 mg at once then wait 30-45 min before next dose is the rule.

Search the sub for "staggering". Watch The Drug Classroom's YouTube video on it. Take once or twice a week at most. Less is more with gabapentin and pregabalin.
