This study identified and characterised 1207 emergency department presentations related to gabapentinoid overdose in Victoria from 2009-2010 to 2023-2024. Presentation rates increased substantially since 2009-2010, and about half (49.5%; 597/1207) of all presentations were classified as intentional. Co-ingestants were common, although 36.2% (437/1207) of presentations were reported to involve gabapentinoids alone.
