What is pregabalin addiction?
If you’ve become dependent on Pregabalin, you will be taking larger amounts than your prescription allows, or you may not even have a prescription. Pregabalin comes with strong withdrawals symptoms which could motivate you to keep using the drug even more.
Pregabalin (Lyrica) is most commonly prescribed to treat nerve damage, fibromyalgia, and also partial on-set seizures. It normally comes in tablet or capsule form and is taken orally but sometimes can be cut and snorted.

Detox
If you suddenly stop taking pregabalin (Lyrica) or decrease the dose, it can lead to uncomfortable withdrawal symptoms. The treatment we offer at Steps Together begins with a detox process, which allows the drug to leave your body. During this period you may experience some withdrawal symptoms. Although these symptoms are not usually life-threatening, there may be some discomfort experienced during this time.
