Pregabalin 75 Mg Side Effects

71 yearsa old male, ht 162 cms.Had open heart surgery on 28 Jan 2011. Post Herpetic Neuralgia on 25 June was prescribed Pregabalin 75mg 2xBD. Viminta Forte 1xOD has now been added. Besides drowsiness, dry mouth, I have gained 5 kg weight(from 63 to 68 kgs) in the last three months and have developed severe constipation. Also there is a conspicuous droop of left eyelid which is now almost obstructing my vision. Earlier I was suffering from severe pain in the effected area (left side of sotmatch from naval to my backbone), sudden stabbing sensation and attacks of itching, which has now decreased to 40%. The dosage of Pregabalin has now been reduced to 1xtds. Request advise with special reference to constipation and weight gain.

Have you consulted your doctor, again?

Pregabalin is an anticonvulsant that has also been shown to help with certain types of nerve pain and it can cause weight gain and constipation, as side effects.

However, the itching and drooping of your eyelid are not normal and could indicate bad reactions to it, or be indicative of other health problems.
