A member asked:
Are there studies that demonstrate that lyrica (pregabalin) controls seizures better than neurontin? references?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No studies : Both Lyrica (pregabalin) and Neurontin are chemically very similar, and there has never been, to my knowledge, a head to head study. Would expect both to have an identical response in epilepsy. One problem with neurontin, will not benefit beyond 2400 mg total daily.
