Is it normal to be feeling exhausted and muscle aches since starting lyrica (pregabalin)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dose reduction: Thes symptoms may be a drug reaction. The dose may have to be reduced and if already low it may need to be stopped. See your doc and let him make decision. If mild he may reduce dose as mentioned or if he is satisfied dose and symptoms ok he may ride it out and see if they dissapear over time. You and your doc have to discuss together risks vs benefits.
