Might Be Allergic

Updated

I was put on Lyrics for chronic pain. Starting dose 50 mg at bedtime. If tolerated add 50 mg in morning. I got to the 50 x 2 per day and started getting itchy blisters on the palms of my hands. Anyone else with this type of reaction?

Hi Lee,

Based on my research, hives/blisters are a side effect of Lyrica. It is possible that your body is just having a reaction to the higher dose you are taking. Have you spoken with your doctor about this?

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Lyrica Details

I took 1 dose of lyrica and I had a similar reaction but then the skin on my hands started to get hard and the skin came off and also on my feet. Exfoliative dermatitis. Before this happened it felt like my hands were pounding and I also started to lose feeling in them. Now I'm kind of afraid to take sulfa drugs. It took about 2 months to fully recover. Very rare reaction
