How about pregabalin ?

Pregabalin was my initial treatment. I reached a point where it no longer prevented pain even with the increased dosage. Made the change to Gabapentin probably 2.5 years ago. Will cycle off Gaba. in a few months. More pain is creaping in daily and the short term memory loss is no joke for me. That is real. 🙂

I was looking at claim info from my drug Rx insurance carrier. They showed provider paid $2279 Another claim showed that they paid $2279 and a second entry for about $101. My cost was around$135 or so. Picked up my last refill of the year today. 270 75mg capsules was about $37. I asked the pharmacist about the $2279 and she thought that was OOP for Lyrica. I take PreGabalin which is a much cheaper generic. I can't imagine shelling out almost $2300 for a 3 month's supply of brand name.
