Hello.
Thank you for posting your query on DoctorSpring.com.
I have noted your symptoms and the possible side effects of lyrica (pregabalin). You can taper the medicines slowly before stopping it. You can follow the schedule given below.
CAP Pregabalin 75 mg morning daily, 75 mg at night on alternate nights, for two weeks;
then, 75 mg only in mornings for two weeks;
then, 75 mg on alternate mornings for two weeks, then stop.
This would mean that you can come off pregabalin in six weeks time.
I hope this helps. Feel free to ask further queries.
Best wishes,
Dr. Sudhir Kumar MD (Medicine), DM (Neurology),
Senior Consultant Neurologist.
