Originally I was prescribed Pregabalin for shingles, however I discovered it helped with my anxiety. I was prescribed 150mg a day as needed for the pain. I now take up to 600mg some days. Pregabalin let's me live without self doubt and negativity. I also take Lexapro
How are you doing now? I have been taking Pregabalin for two months now.
It works wonderfully for me I’m on 150mg in the morning and 50mg afternoon and 150mg at night, may I ask what dosage your on?
Of course I’m on other medication just to add..
Hi I’ve been prescribed 50mg 3x a day. I’m terrified to start them tho. I also take Prozac 40mg daily. Can I ask if they worked for you from the first dosage? And how long you have been on them for? Thanks
I guess you should try them, I noticed an affect from the first dosage I’m on them
Just over a year now, although I was a bit tired at the start but now I’m used too it and it’s working for depression, anxiety, insomnia and my nerve damage.
That’s what I take daily.
Propranolol 80mg er
Mirtazapine 15mg
Propantheline 90 mg
Lyrica (pregabalin) 350mg
Lansoprazole 30mg
Olanzapine 5mg at night
Olanzapine 2.5mg at morning
amitriptyline 10mg
Codipar 15mg/500mg
I wish I could get my head around just trying so scared of side effects I’ve built it up to probably being bigger than it is!
Thank you for being so honest with me I really need that.
Are you uk or somewhere else (just curious)
Thanks
You’ll get there 1 step at a time and I’m from Ireland and yourself?
Thank you I do hope so! Are you in a good place now then? I get fed up of it knowing what mood I’m going to have from day to day. I think I’m ok then I nose dive again
So far I’ve had more good days than bad but there’s no quick fix, just take one day at a time.
True... thanks for chatting with me
Your welcome just sharing my experience not everyone’s experiences is the same, I wish you the best of luck.
