Lyrica 500 Mg

22 Topics Found

Lyricda worked well to decrease my debiliting level of neuropathic pain and burn in feet and lower legs. This allowed me to function better in my daily activities. Medicaid has seen fit to deny me the dosage (500 mg/day) which worked, and only allow me 300 mg/day, which is ineffective. I need documentation on the efficasy of doses over 300 mg/day in order to fight my appeal of this decision. Thanx, kate

I have been taking lyrica for 7 weeks now for severe nerve pain. I began to gain a lot of weight immediately but because the drug is so effective at relieving my pain, I was very reluctant to come off it. Three weeks ago I began the 5:2 diet - eating 500 calories on 2 non-consecutive days each week and normally for the rest of the week - ('The 5:2 Vegetarian Diet Made eZy' by Polly Fielding and `The 5:2 Diet: Single Serving Vegetarian Recipes' by Belinda Price are books I bought to help me). I was amazed at how easily the pounds dropped off after only a couple weeks. I am on 150 mg twice daily. I do hope this helps someone with the same worries I had about the side effect of weight gain whilst taking lyrica . ## Yes I agree, I too was able to control my weight while on Lyric...

I cut off three of my middle fingers at the first joint 4 months ago. I was first prescribed Oxycodon by one doctor. I got worried about addiction and switched to a hand soecialist. He prescribed Tramodo and Lyrica. After 3 months of 150 mg twice a day I can;t walk without a cane, I've gained 20 pounds, I have short term memory loss plus a host of other related problems. I'm also taking Levetiracetam 500 mg AM and PM, another anti seizure med. I've got to come off Lyrica, but if the hand specialist balks at the idea, what kind of doctor can help wean me off Lyrica. I'm willing to tough it out with the pain. ## Hello, Jim! How are you? The issue here is that your problems may not be solely due to the Lyrica. The Levetiracetam can also cause such problems, these are fairly...

I am on 15mg of methadone and just got a prescription for Lyrica 75mg. Is it ok to take these meds together? ## im on 70mg of methadone and 50mg of lyrica,,and no problems so far ## Can i take my seroquel 6 hrs after taking 10 mg methadone ## Does it truly relieve the pain? ## Is methadone the same as lyrica? ## No it's not chemical make up is totally different. Lyrica targets the nerves while methadone is an all over pain medication that can still leave nerve pain untouched. ## I have been taking 75 mg lyrica 3 times a day for neuropathy caused by chemotherapy. .the doctor prescribed me 500mg cephalexin 4 times a day for a infection im on the second week and my fingers hurt so bad i can barely use them but it seems to ge more joint pain but it is extremely painful can barely bend t...

i am looking for a paracetamol with combination of b1, b6 & b12 1000 mg. that can cure my arms numbness ## To my knowledge, there is no Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) + B-vitamin combination on the market. But you could just as easily buy these two things separately over-the-counter at your local pharmacy. Is the arm numbness due to a pinched nerve or something? ## I dunno if there in your country you have dolo-neurobion.its a combination of paracetamol +b1+b6+b12 ## I was diagnosed of osteoarthritis and my doctor prescribe me with pregabalin lyrica with tramadol but it didn't work for me and the pain was still severe.

I was going to a pain mgmt doc for over eight years and when I had to go on medicade disablility, I had to change doctors. I loved my doctor, he cared about helping me get better and keeping me out of as much pain as possible. I was taking lortab 10/500 x 5 daily, lyrica 150 x 2 daily and I had really bad headaches and I was taking fiorinal up to 4 daily if needed. I have chronic neck problems. These meds worked just fine cause I didn't want to go to anything stronger cause I knew how hard is was going to be to get off of this when/if my neck got better. My doctor had tried everything he could before we decided on neck surgery. So I went to see the surgeon and he agreed that was about the only option I had left to fix my neck. My neck curves the opposite way that it should and the d...

Could I be rebounding from Gabapentin withdrawal or fibro pain getting worse? I was prescribed Lyrica because the pain has just gotten worse and worse with Gabapentin, and am now tapering off of Gabapentin. I've been on it 22 months. Was up to 2400 mg last fall, but the first of this year I tapered down to 1800 and have been at 1500 to 1800 a day since. My doctor told me to taper 300 mg every 2 days. I think that is probably too fast. I am now down to 900 (as of last night). My pain is even worse and I wonder if part of the pain is rebound effect. A few days before I saw my doctor my pain suddenly got much worse. But now it is even worse yet. I have gone from taking usual dose of 2 Vicodin 5/500 a day to taking 2 Vicodin at a time to get any relief at all. And still the relief is ab...

I've been taking lyrica everyday for around 7 months. I've tried to stop taking them and the withdrawal symptoms are so severe I couldn't bare it after 5 days. apart from severs sweating feeling sick and aching all over, its the hallucinations and feeling like you are going to die. I mean really thinking you are going to have a heart attack. I could see my aura and time goes by so slowly it's worse then any opiate withdrawals. I was terrified and went back on them. I take 500 to 100 mg a day. I must get off them. I can't stand it. I worry that if I had to go into a hospital I would start withdrawing and I wouldn't be able to get them. Can you help me? What can I do? ## Hello, Debz! How are you doing? I'm sorry about what you're going through. The FDA clas...
