Works brilliantly for (severe) facial pain. In the beginning (because of the pain) I started taking it too quickly and that caused symptoms such as really drowsy, dizzy, blurred vision, incredibly tired and sleepy. After one week reduced down to 3 x 100 mg a day and after two weeks down to 2 x 100 mg a day and it's going well. Tiredness getting better, but unfortunately I still have to take som...

This medicine certainly works well for the facial pain except I (and my environment) find the side-effects quite bad: dejected, irritable, forgetful and confused.

Facial pain (trigeminal neuralgia). Throughout the day countless bouts of shooting pains in my left cheek. From dentist to GP to neurologist.

Lyrica is indispensable for me. Tegretol and Keppra made me really ill, even affected my liver function. I've been taking Lyrica by Pfizer for years but now I've got Sandoz and it doesn't work so well and really dizzy.

I was given this and I've got bad side effects, palpitations, deafness, and I stopped after one week because I was having such bad palpitations. I thought I was having a heart attack. If you've got heart problems then watch out for this medicine! Nightmare. I still have palpitations today, I don't know if they're going to go away, otherwise it's back to the GP!

Doesn't entirely help because i only want to take this once a day in case of side effects like drowsiness, sleeping, etc. my own choice to take this just once a day still quite happy, pain is only in the background.
