Pregabalin
"I JUST started using this drug 3 days ago. I have been suffering with horrible pain from a herniated disc over the past 2 months. Tried hydrocortisone shots in my back and the pain went away for 3-4 days. I've been on vicodin and skelaxin as well as Aleve twice a day. I've had to take my vicodin every 4 hours instead of every 6 hours because the pain has been so bad. Just in the last 48 hours, I've noticed such a difference with Lyrica. I keep waiting for the pain to be there, but it is NOT. I'm still titrating my way up on the dosage, but in another day or two, my maximum dose will be 50 mg 3 times a day.  Currently, I'm taking 50 mg 2 times a day. It really works."
