Pregabaline

[foxglove]

Does anyone taking pregabaline for peripheral neuropathy get headaches?

[Markc012]

Hello foxglove. I had headaches when I first started taking Pregabalin, I had a load of side effects, but my GP said just keep taking them and the headaches went away within 2 weeks. I do occasionally get them but not as bad as I did when I first started. Hope that helps. Mark

Thanks Markc012, does indeed help. This is my second try of pregabalin - did not persevere first time (I am impatient by nature!). The headaches have eased and I' m hoping the other unwanted side effects follow
