Pregabalin
Used for nerve pain, generalized anxiety, and some seizure types
Pregabalin (Lyrica) is in the same class as Gabapentin. It is often used for nerve pain, fibromyalgia, generalized anxiety disorder, and some seizure types. Doses tend to be smaller than Gabapentin and are taken twice a day.
How the pharmacy helps
We carry common strengths from 25 mg to 300 mg. Like Gabapentin, the pharmacist will review combinations with opioids and benzodiazepines.
