A member asked:

Can lyrica (pregabalin) cause neurological problems?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not usually: Not typically, since it's actually a drug used to help with neurological problems, like nerve pain and diabetic neuropathy. The idea is that it should make the nerve problems better, not worse.
