How long does it take for lyrica (pregabalin) to take effect for nerve pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Varies: Some patients report improvement soon after they take it. Under dosing is not uncommon. Its a generally safe medication with few drug interactions and works better at higher dosage, side effects permitting.
