Hi, I see you're new to the forum. I note that your profile states epilepsy as a health interest. Do you also have RLS (restless legs syndrome)? As a rule, medication interactions are best discussed with your treating doctor or pharmacist.

As Amrob asks, do you have Restless Legs Syndrome?

rls-uk.org/what-is-rls

Phenytoin is primarily used in treating epilepsy, which is the only condition you mention in your profile.

Pregabalin is used to treat epilepsy and anxiety. It's also taken to treat nerve pain (and RLS).

If adding pregabalin has been recommended by your doctor but you're not sure, you might be better joining and asking for advice at Epilepsy Action:

Or perhaps Pain Concern:
