Slept 10:30pm to 1:30am - coming down on Pregabalin (Lyrica)

I dropped my anxiety meds down

Think it has stopped me sleeping properly tonight

It’s 2:17am now and not sure what to do.

I have a 8am to 4:30pm work day today :confused:

Suppose the advice will be that I need to ride out this storm whilst I come down on these meds?

FYI I dropped my Pregabalin dose. I think it was making me put weight on

Gone to 150mg AM and 225mg PM - so dropped 75mg off the morning dose and the half life is just 6 hours

Maybe with the weekend coming I can just get through today?

What do you all think?

yea you should see for a bit while you get used to the new dose… maybe it gets better.

Hi

My doc decided I come off pregabalin as it was not helping with anxiety.

I went from 200mg to 50 mg now in the space of 7-8 weeks.

I had sleepless nights but can’t judge if it was coming off the drug that caused it.

HTH
