I'm taking 900mg of Lyrica a day and is it safe?
Jenbinkier
Dr prescribed me Lyrica for nerve damage in my neck. I was taking 300mg twice daily but it seemed to wear off too soon, So I bumped it up to 3 times daily and it's perfect. Is it safe?

No, the maximum daily dose of Lyrica is no more than 600 mg per day.

I would consult your doctor. 900 milligrams of Lyrica sounds like quite a lot just to be safe.
