It takes a few weeks for the Pregabalin to be effective. Could the dr give you some Tramadol to get you over this.?

Cheers.

I am only on the pregabalin

in reply to Henshaw241241

The ptegabalin isn't enough to help with the withdrawals you are having from taking less pramipexole ask your doctor for some Tramadol to help while you are still withdrawing it's what most people take when weaning off pramipexole

Not what you're looking for?
