lyrica overdose information

The doctor mentioned the neurotin before the lyrica. I said I wanted to try lyrica because a friend swears by it. I do have some eye pain. It is different than the ones I have before a migraine. Is anyone sensitive to lip glosses, etc.? I had something weird happen last night that I am not sure if it ties in to this. I used lip gloss and it tasted like soap. I started coughing some and my eyes teared up and my nose got stuffy.

I was overdosed for 18 months or more on this medication (80mg instead of 40mg). I ended up in a walker with impaired mental function. I now have periferal neuropathy & severe balance issues. I need to know where I can find out if this is a result of the overdose or if it's coincidence.

Lyrica is the one medication that I know of that is made to help with the pain of Fibromyalgia. I am on Lyrica myself for Fibro and it has helped me but I must say that although it doesn't completely take the pain away, it does take away a lot of the pain. It allows me to function like a "normal" person although I really do have to watch what and how much I do. I cannot do things that I used to do, unfortunately but at least I can function. :) For this, I am thankful.

Ok lets get to my question. My doctor has put me on celebrex, lyrica, gabopentin and tylenol 3. for the past two months she put me on percoset. I was supposed to take two a day but went up to 4 or 5 a day not just to releive the pain but for the feeling it gave me. I went into the hospital 2 weeks ago with pnemonia. I was released after 3 days. Thesecond day I was home I overdid it again with thepercoset. My husband went to bed and about 10 mins after that he heard a bang. I had passed out.

Thank U 4 ans. me< my Dr.

Well I saw my gp today again and she is going to wean me off of the Lyrica and start me on Elavil which used to be used as a depressant but is now used for pain or sleep issues. She may then try me on Cesamet later which is a THC derivative med that they used to use for nausea but now use mostly for pain.

Hello I am sorry to hear your daughter is have so many problems with her new med and pain. I have never taken what she is on. I take Lyrica. When I first started it only took a day or two for my little side effects to stop. Everyone is different so they may start to clear up soon or she may not be able to take this med. She should talk to her doctor and see what they say. That would be the best thing to do. Have her get in to contact with them ASAP She may be having a reaction!!!

I take about 18 Lyrica a day. Please help me. I will die from overdose or severe depression. I have no one to talk to. My teenage daughters are suffering with me.

I have heard that Lyrica actually worse that Gabapentin for the weight gain. I have gained a bit on the gabapentin too, but my mother was on Lyric and gained 30 lbs. in a VERY short time. you might want to reconsider it. I donèt know if it is a body type and condition that causes the weight gain, but I have heard it alot from people on Lyrica. Just check it out Pat, and see what your Dr.

and nerve pain meds (Lyrica) and or Neurontin chemical cousin less potent than Lyrica working and lessening the pain for most who suffer this syndrome. There is not a sure cause as to why Fibro exists but efforts are being made on the parts of docs who believe in this syndrome and for the want of helping there patients. Narcotic pain meds are by far the most widely used form of treating Fibro pain and work extremely well for most.

I was taking both Lyrica and Ultram. I found that should I miss a dose of the Lyrica the pain was intensified and I didn't like the cognitive difficulty that it caused. I recently discontinued the Ultram after being on it for 3 yrs. Honestly, I am still achy and in pain, but I now see that the Ultram did little to begin with. I never had the dosage increased during the time I was taking it. Take care.

You can also contact the pharmacist for advice and you can also find information on the medicine information leaflet what to do and who to contact when experiencing any side effects and any overdose. An overdose is when someone takes too much of the prescribed medication all in one go. If your mum has taken the medication as prescribed and has started to experience side effects, her body cannot tolerate the medication. This is not an overdose, but an adverse reaction to the medication.

hi everyone, my Neuro gave me some Lyrica to use for my pain in my legs, I took my first pill around noon today...75mg..he said to take it for a week..then go up to 150mg..two pills. well, not long after I took it, I felt horrible...like I was drunk or stoned or something strange...I didn't make sense.. felt horrible.. then I fell asleep on the couch for a few hours. I didn't even notice my legs..didn't care either..strange feeling....

Is anyone taking Lyrica for their Fibro and if so is it helping and what doseage are you taking? I am medicine sensitive so I was started last Sept. on 25mg and have just now made it up to 225mg.

First I would like to thank everyone for the info! Some was really helpful. Lanal395, I just wanted to clarify something; patients with chronic disease can and do become addicted to their medications. The only difference is that due to the chronic pain, the medications start working on the nerve receptors causing the pain instead of making you high. You still need to be careful because of deadly drug interactions.

Does anyone know what will happen during a Zoloft overdose? I am diagnosed with Bipolar 1 and ADHD and impulsiveness is a huge problem. I took probably 15 - 20 100 mg Zoloft pills. About 10 minutes later my boyfriend made me make myself puke. I didn’t see any come back up unless they hid in my food. I feel very weird right now. Am I going to be ok?

Hi ! I just posted information on Lyrica in our Health Pages just yesterday. I agree... physicians need to come around when it comes to these syndromes. It is ridiculous that my friend, who works in the medical field, works with a physician who still doesn't believe CFS is even real ! That debate has been resolved AGES ago. Sheesh ! And if you read the history of CFS... it has been around for a very long time.

Hi, I take lyrica 225mg 2 x a day. I have been and still am where you are. I have had a few bad days where I was looking at that option. I was able to get help from here which was great. I have not talked to any of my Dr's about this due to problems I already have at work and did not want anything like this to help my work mess with me any more than they already are. I am on alot of different drugs so I can not say that it was the lyrica.
