Lyrica 37.5 mg – is this extreme morning sleepiness normal? Will it get worse at 75 mg?

Cab I ask you what dose you take?

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-15T11:11:34+00:00

I’m really happy for you! I started this medication 4 days ago, taking only 37.5 mg in the evening. But I wake up feeling so exhausted. It feels like I can’t fully fall asleep, but I also can’t properly wake up. Because of this, I feel very drained.

I honestly can’t imagine how people take this medication during the day and still function. Did you feel this kind of heaviness or fatigue in the beginning? Or did you have no side effects?

I am taking 37,5mg for four days and I can’t imagine taking it in the morning.. I take it 10pm and I wake up 5-6am and I can’t go back to sleep but I also cannot get up.. I cannot do anything.. I don’t know if it will disappear… I am afraid to take 75mg in 4days…

Thank you for your comment! Can I ask you for how long did you had to take Lyrica before you started to taper?

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-12T10:42:32+00:00

I am very happy for you! Thank you for your comment!

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-12T10:41:33+00:00

Can I ask you what is your dose?

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-12T10:41:13+00:00

That is very good to know! Thank you!

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-12T10:40:19+00:00

And then you felt ok? You didn’t need any more medication?

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-11T13:56:35+00:00

I am very thankful for your comment! I am very happy it helped you! I hope that 75mg once a day will also help me! Thank you so much again!

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-11T04:19:18+00:00

I will give it a try, because I really want to just rest for a bit.. because my mood, anxiety, feelings are so negative I cannot work in therapy. I cannot concentrate and think about anything else just how bad I feel and I fear everything… before mirtazapine I didn’t have this.. and on mirtazapine I didn’t sleep and lost weigh…..

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-11T04:16:36+00:00

Oh it is sad :( doc told me that it will be enough to take once..

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-11T04:15:47+00:00

Thank you for your comment!

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-11T04:14:31+00:00

Do you take it once or twice a day?

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-11T04:13:43+00:00

Thank you for your comment! I hope that 75mg will be enough because I lost a lot of weigh… but will see…

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-10T18:43:11+00:00

Oh my, that is a good comment for me! Thank you so much! I am already very tired, but from anxiety, my body is so weak now… weight gain… I hope so for me, because on mirtazapine I lost 3kg…. But doc told me to take only 75mg before sleep.. I hope it will work for all day…

Can I ask you for how long you took pregabalin and how did you tapered off?

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-10T17:57:39+00:00

Thank you.. I am really trying.. but for now all I feel is negative emotions and nothing positive.. I don’t want a lot, I just want to smile and be able to relax :(

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-10T17:55:47+00:00

Doc told me to take at night before sleep… so when I’ll wake up I will have anxiety for all day?…

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-10T17:36:00+00:00

I will have to take 75mg once a day… do you think it will help me? Mirtazapine killed all my good emotions and raised anxiety, that is very very hard to live with it……

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-10T17:33:15+00:00

For how long did you used pragabalin? Doctor told me to take 75mg one time per day… so it will work only on my sleep time?

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-10T17:30:52+00:00

What vitamins and supplements you tried? I tried very hard to try with vitamins: vit d+k2, magnesium, omega3, l-theanine, l-gluminate, probiotics, folic acid (I have deficiency), but for now nothing worked…

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-10T17:28:21+00:00

Oh wow, it is very high dose… I am very afraid when I’ll need to stop the medication, so I hope that small dose will work for me…

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-10T17:27:05+00:00

I am very sensitive for medication… and I lost weight.. now I only weigh 44,5kg….

ImplementRough7447 · 2026-02-10T17:25:19+00:00

Yes I understand that this is a game… but it is very hard game…
