User Reviews for pregabalin oral

Not sure if it is working effectively. My feet are still burning and hurting. I was just started om it a week ago. Do I need to have the amount of drug increased? Mike Trexler

Very little pain relief. I have a spnal cord injury causing extreme carpal tunnel in both hands/arms, neuropathy in torso and legs/feet. May have someting to do with why it doesn't work for me well.

I had very bad pain in my back which was getting worse every day. My doctor said it was nerve pain and gave me a sample of Lyrica to see if it help. It took away 85 to 90 percent of the pain. However after a day I broke out in a rash, It turns out I had shingles and that was causing the nerve pain. Thank God for Lyrica if I was even 15 min. late taking it I would be in terrible pain. I am just about recovered now. The Lyrica worked wonders for me. Without it I couldn't find a comfortable spot to lay down or sit up. Read More Read Less

lyrica has been a god sent it has helped my nueropathy so much. without it i could not walk.

ITS EASY TO USE BECAUSE I TAKE IT TWICE A DAY,PAIN WAS REDUCED FAIRY WELL, BUT IT SEEMS TO CAUSE DRYING NOT ONLY THE MOUTH BUT ALL OPENINGS OF THE BODY EG VAGINA, DROWSINESS IS OBVIOUS

Giventhe drug for migraines after 3 strokes from vaso-spasm strokes. Couldnt breath like cronic asthma attack - doctor stated never heard of this reaction - stopped the drug still have the migraines - no ones seems to care except me. Never again Favorite drug of the moment.

I take Lyrica for Fibro. and for nerve pain and it works pretty darn well. It is actually hard to tell which med has helped the most as I am on several different meds for pain. But as long as the dose is increased slowly I have had no problems taking Lyrica.

it has eased my pain,but not stop it.

I have gone back to this medication after taking Lyrica because of blurred vision and extreme dry mouth symptoms. I wish I could find something else that would help with the firomyalga pain. This seems to be the only other medication there is.

I used this drug to relieve exteme tingling and electric shocks from my stomach down my legs to my feet and toes due to type II diabetes. I also was unable to sleep more than 1 or 2 hours a night. Lyrica relived all symptoms immediatley after taking the first pill. Only adverse side effect was a punch drunk feeling that only occurred after taking the first pill. Eventually my nerve pain went away after 10 months and I was able to stop taking Lyrica for the next 6 months. My sleep pattern returned to a more normal 5 to 6 hours per night. I have recently been unable to sleep more that 1 to 2 hours per night again and I started taking 1 150mg pill before going to bed as a sleep aid. Lyrica works like a champ as a sleep aid. I get 5 to 6 hours sleep again with no side effects.Read More Read Less

treatment for fibromyalgia - this medication has alot of side effects and you have to decide if the side effects you experience are worth the choice vs the pain.

I have been given 75mg twice daily took for 6 months. Had improvement in pain for 5 months then started getting hallucinations, swelling of ankles, weight gain. Dr suggetsed to stop gradually. Since stopped still have hallucinations. anyone else had this problem ?

Loved the med. Stopped my feet pain almost completely. But I gained 20 pounds in 2 months and then went off immediately. Then continued to gain another 10 pounds. Lost that last 10 but the other 20 has never came back off. Ugh! Doctor says this is common. Wish I hadnt tried it though.

This works nearly as well as Lyrica but because I don't live close to my pharmacy, I've let myself run out of it twice for two days. The uncontrollable ITCHING is horrible! I've vowed to not let this happen again.

was on gabapentin which caused tinitus so was switched to pregablin which still causes tinitus! does help but not when i have attacks of severe back pain (i have a bulginging disc)

Somewhat tolerable skin itching, tiredness feeling, & dizzy. Otherwise it helped the back pain.

I've noticed that my eye sight has become more blurry. Sleep during the day for 1-2 hrs. Not sure if it is helping or not. Time will tell.

Took Lyrica for 4 years, big government said you can't take this medicine anymore. Started taking pregabalin not as effective. More side effects than Lyrica.

The drug obliviates the back and leg pain. The side effects are dizziness, impaired ability to focus my eyes, and sleepiness. These side effects are controllable for me.

After taking Lyrica this medicine does not work nor and has worse side effects.
