Lyrica and withdrawal symptoms?
Sep 05, 2008 06:49PM in the Addiction: Substance Abuse Community
Hi guys, I was just wondering if any of you have been on Lyrica and come off of it having withdrawal symptoms?

She said my system is not regulating my blood press...
Lortab Withdrawl - Day 3

Hey Micky, I am on Lortab right now and have been for over a year. I dread trying to get off of it.

After a week of Klonopin which made me sl...

Jul 30, 2008 08:03PM in the Addiction: Substance Abuse Community
Hey guys I came here back in April in severe withdrawl syndrome from Valium. I am still having some weird sensations and don't know if I am still having some withdrawl effects from the Valium or if it's just side effects from the Lyrica.
