    I also recently did a psychiatry rotation and seen lyrica used a lot in the context of generalized anxiety and was actually told it's fine line if isolated GAD.

      That's right. It's being used off label for GAD often if SSRI's maxed or contraindicated.

    That weight is not a correct stat that study is NS. Dads a doctor and I’m on Lyrica. Everyone I’ve met has gained minimum 25-30 pounds. I’ve never met anyone who hasn’t. I met a body builder who is gaining and can’t lose weight. I have to live in extreme pain I can’t keep gaining.

    Thanks for the information, it helpful! I am on Lyrica/Pregabalin for Neuropathic Pain after lung surgery. I am on 400Mg a day 150MG in the day and 250MG at night but recently the Dose is not helping as it was. I have had Side effects 3 and 4 but it has not made me want to stop the Medication. My DR has recently prescribed me a Sedative for the night to (Promethazine 25MG). Would you say that its possible to Increase the Lyrica/Pregabalin Dose to 600MG a Day? I am base in the UK but finding it hard to get good Pain Management so any Advise would be great. Thank You!

    For those with anxiety is there even any point in a second dose in the evening? If I am home I am not anxious. So Would it be ok for a small dose in the morning and thats it? I tried 75mg and just felt just very numb, so I was thinking of a much lower dose and maybe even every other day to avoid tolerance building up. I also take modafinil every other day for ADHD.

    The side effects that are the worst for me are nightmares, sleepy but with extreme insomnia, headaches, some vision issues and just feeling not there. I’ve had memory loss mid sentence, the shakes on the inside and slight nausea. I already had a predisposition for all of those things. I just started on this medication a week ago at 75 mg at night only. I’m going to ask my doctor to pull it back to 25 mg because the nerve pain is tolerable where it was not before. For me, I would like to see if this drug will work out. As a side note, I have a very low tolerance to prescription medication in general so that is the difference between me and others.

      My wife has been a size 0 for 20 years she couldnnever gain weight reguardless of what she ate , 3 months on lyrica she cant fit into anything and has put on 55lbs magically as well as deveoloped severe depression and worse. She has never been depressed even with many reason to be. I regret her choice of taking this pill, i warned her to not take it and she went on the direction of her doctor in conjunction with her pain meds. She isbdisabled withbserve spinal stenosis xervucal stenosis lumbar stenosis. Bulging disc herniated disc, she has always been in pain but rather upbeat and happy given her bad luck with her body. Immediately after taking lyrica she has turned into a person ive never known, inwant my old wife back. I forced her to quit taking it and she has begun to finally lose weight, she is maybe starting tonbe a little less depressed, but it cones and goes. This drug has ni business being on the market. Opiods are 10000x safer then this garbage.
