The FDA sued Pfizer for $2.3 Billion. "The largest civil fraud settlement in history against a pharmaceutical company. The federal share of the civil settlement is $668,514,830 and the state Medicaid share of the civil settlement is $331,485,170. The settlement also resolves allegations that Pfizer paid kickbacks to health care providers to induce them to prescribe these, as well as other drugs." Read the details on Food and Drug Administration Office of Criminal Investigations U.S. Department of Justice Immediate Press Release dated September 2, 2009." United States Attorney, District of Massachusetts, Contact: Christine DiLorio-Sterling (617)748-3356. The drug was approved in 2005, Pfizer CHANGED the INGREDIENTS AFTER it was approved. Please, somebody help us!! I can't believe they are still advertising LYRICA on TV.

Hello I am so sorry that your reaction to lyric has been horrible like myself the weight gain the swelling of the hands of the ankles dry mouth the feeling of being high shortness of breath. And that's just some of the side effects I am now back on gabapentin and it is no better. I agree we all need to have something done about Lyrica I hope and pray that there is a law firm that is willing to take on the makers of Lyrica. I am really afraid you please take care and God bless you all in my prayers and thoughts
