Hiya, I have been on pregabalin for nearly 4 years, not for my anxiety but for neuro reasons after been diagnosed with PA. I take 200mcg twice daily, and sertaline 200mcg daily but split this up to 1 tablet twice daily. I only put weight on after my thyroid removal. Did not put weight on or problems with acne. Talk to you your doctor before weaning yourself off pregabalin.
