Using Lyrica As A Cream

I have a wheelchair bound client who says his feet hurt from not being used. The doctor gave an RX for Lyrica but told us to empty the capsule into any regular lotion and apply it to his feet for the pain. Client said it really helps.

It is sometimes prescribed to be used like that and does help many people, some doctor's have it specially made from a compounding pharmacy, but this cuts out that step.

The FDA lists the typical side effects as mostly being related to its topical use, so they may include skin redness, dryness, and irritation.

Is it still working for him?
