well, i know that not everyone can tolerate lyrica (or like was said above, maybe your dose just needs to be adjusted -- heck, maybe i should go on it for my insomnia!!!!)....i also understand your "no appetite" with the ritalin....i have friends whose children are on a similar medication, and they say that it REALLY wrecks the appetite....check with your doc....maybe the combination is just too much for you??  sorry i can't help more, haven't had personal experience with either of the medications, but maybe someone on here has and will respond soon....

best of luck!

I am not sure about the combo, but it does sound like you need to discuss this with your Dr. Perhaps the doses are off?
