Diabetic asthmatic hypertensive, and ra 65y he is on ins mixtard 70/30 inalopril ditalidium90 micardis40 his dr advice him to take arcoxia and lyrica (pregabalin)?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See details: Stay off arcoxia as this can cause elevated bp, reduction of kidney function and possibly an increased risk of heart attacks. Why was Lyrica (pregabalin) suggested? Do you have a neuropathy?
