What Is Pregablin

## was taking lyrica 2X's a day. no ins. need a cheaper medicine ## Lyrica is still fairly new on the market, thus the generic is not available, yet. There are some other alernatives that are, such as Gabapentin, the generic version of Neurontin, which is approved to treat the same conditions. Have you tried talking to your doctor about this? With no insurance, you may also be eligible for assitance from: Pparx.org

I have been on a course of 800mg of pregablin for nearly five years. In the past 9 months I have been having terrible pains in my teeth and gums. I had a serious hand accident with catastrophic injuries so was prescribed the above I had two large operations to save my hand . The dentist has sent me to see a specialist and I have been informed that I am losing quite a few teeth . My teeth where my pride and joy now fifty five and starting to lose them has really upset me . How can these people sell drugs that are doing us so much harm? I have been working really hard over the past three months and have been reducing my intake of pregablin which has been very very difficult. Last Monday was the first week without any pregablin and so far managing the pain is horrific but this may be the o...

Can I take pregablin,cocodamol and ibuprofen together ## Hello, Kell! How are you? I didn't find any interactions or problems listed between these medications, but it's always best to double check to be sure. The FDA classifies Cocogamol as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Ibuprofen is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and stomach irritation. Pregabalin may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, mood swings and weight gain. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hello, has anyone experienced a sensitivity to noise while taking pregablin. It's hard to explain but it's like if I'm in a room and someone speaks/bangs something/loud noise on TV, my insides jump. It's like a nerve jump kind of issue. It's driving me nuts as it's happening more and more often. I could be watching the TV and my husband speaks, the first word makes the whole of my insides jump. Unsure if it is this medication or one of the other meds I'm taking but only seems to of started as I began to takes these meds. Thank you xx ## Hello, Claire! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem you're experiencing, I can see why that would be annoying. This medication can cause some anxiety, as a side effect according to the FDA, so that could be what...

I have suffered with the above for about 8 yrs since around tge age of 40. So far as I know this is degenerative and the somewhat sevre daily pain is caused by compression on nerves in tge spinal column. I am presribed co-codomol and pregablin which is effective most days but only reduces the pain. I can still really suffer on some days! I wonder in this day and age why their is not a better treatment or possible surgical procedure to replace the protective layer between spinal bones? ## There are stronger medications available, but they do tend to carry the risk of being habit forming, so many doctor's are reluctant to prescribed. The NIH lists other typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. As to why we have not found an e...

Pregablin group Drug ## Hello Veeraperumal, I hope you are having a wonderful day.
