Lyrica

[InSpain]

Has anyone else had a bad reaction to Lyrica? If so, what were your symptoms? I feel really ill today and am wondering if it could be the Lyrica I have been taking for about 3 weeks now.

Hi there, I do not know much about it, but did find this for you: lyrica.com/answers/understa...

Hope you feel better soon and that it is just a passing side effect

Hi what dosage are you taking??? it can make you feel kind of drunk when first taking it, it is a pretty hefty drug but one I would not be without! but as above....if worried contact your GP.

Hi. I took Lyrica for a very short time about 5 years ago. I have now too high pulmonary hypertension. Perhaps already then a litte bit too high hypertension. I got heart problem so I stoped taking this medicine. It was subscribed by my ordinary neurolog at the hospital here in Stockholm. I have had TIAs and has Lupus Anticoagulant and I am on Warfarin since 1,5 years with a good result.

I had to stop taking pregabalin as it caused me to have severe jerky movements sometimes so bad that it looked like i was having a fit. They stopped within 2 days of stopping it. I take gabapentin instead
