I have peripheral neuropathy and first had gabapentin, but I was transferred to Lyrica (pregabalin) when that became availalable. It works very well and makes the nights more tolerable. I had all the symptoms of the neuropathy and went half crazy with the pain and burning of my feet, in the night but none of diabetes........which was unusual. I take 150 in the morning and 300 in the evening.
I did have some side effects, dizzy, lost the ability to speak at times, and a little confused at times, but I had to have some medication for my feet and after a while the side effects settled. My life would be awful without having this medication.
