Lyrica weight gain

JANE · 12-10-2005, 12:43 PM

Hello

I am new to this forum. I am suffering from a herniated disc and have been prescribed Lyrica for pain. Is there anyone who has taken it who has not gained weight? I gain weight easily and it seems that its results are mixed for pain relief but guaranteed for weight gain. Thanks for your input.

I have been on Lyrica for a little over a week now and there has been no increase in my appitite nor has there been any decrease in the pain. We have to give it time to see how we react to Lyrica. Good luck.
