In reply to Meds making me stoned--NEED HELP, posted by mindart on January 5, 2008, at 15:25:45
> I have bipolar II and peripheral neuropathy, and I need any info and/or experience people have with taking Lyrica in med cocktail with mood stabilizers, anti-depressant, klonopin. I added Lyrica for the nerve pain. I know I am over-medicated because since adding the Lyrica, I feel stoned for first half of the day and can't work. Lyrica works really well for relieving nerve pain but I'm too spaced out...any suggestions would be appreciated.

>Nothing works quite like Lyrica or its cousin Neurontin. When I was on Neurontin I was sooo stoned. I felt like I was floating.
Amitryptaline (sp?) is suppose to good for pain, but I don't know if it works for nerve pain.
Sorry I don't have anything helpful to tell you except I know how you feel. My friends thought I was smoking pot when I was on neurontin.
