Doctor, i had bell's palsy for a month, my eye doesn't blink as fast as the other side, but i can close it now. the dr. prescribed me lyrica (pregabalin) is it ok?

Bells palsy: Night time closure of eye might still be a problem for months use lubricant drops during day and tape shut or ointment in eye at might or when sleeping. No real studies to show lyrica (pregabalin). Gabapentine or oral antivirals really help. Time does.
