Hey there, yeah i was on them for a couple of years, there are used to help nerve pain and given to help people with epilepsy. A lot of people with fibromyalgia use them though as good to help stop pain signals going to the brain.

Pregabilin can make you feel drunk or high on stronger dosages. You will get used to it though.

Thanks for your help that's made me feel better think that i will take them at night

I wouldn't take Pregabalin (Lyrica) and for the following reasons.................

askapatient.com/viewrating....

I belong to a social media group which has just under 5000 members whose lives have been ruined by pregabalin, and that includes my own. Its a poison and wrecks lives.

There are substitutes to taking Lyrica (Pregabalin) and I'll find out what these are from other former users. I was prescribed Lyrica not for pain but for Peripheral Neuropathy and Generalised Anxiety Disorder. Will get back to you asap.

I do not have enough knowledge but a quick google search shows the following.

drugs.com/cdi/pregabalin.html

This drug can be used for AD and Nerve Pain caused by trapped nerves in various parts of the body. At night they are best taken around half an hour before bed, if you take them in the morning it will effect your concentration during the day and you will loose the sleeping tablet effect they will give at night
