I am taking 50mg lyrica bid with 60mg prozac. So far so good. It has been about four weeks and I feel confident. It appeared that the prozac lost something. So my Psych decided to boost it with the lyrica.
Is it really helping you with your panic?,Because i have been trying to find somthing that will help me
Hi.
I don't have any experience with Lyrica myself, but I know that it's classified as an anti- epilepticum. Much used for it's analgetic properties(against peripheral and central neuropathic pain) but also it is indicated for GAD (not panic attacks) .Pregabalin(the working agent) is GABAergic, it has structural similarities with GABA and hence are thought to work in the same way in the brain(inhibiting) whilst it also has an inhibiting effect on the processes of glutamate and nor-adrenaline (which are stimulating in their nature)
Hope someone who've actually tried it comes along to give you a better answer:)
Good luck!
