Be careful with Lyrica if you are prescribed buprenorphin. My doctor prescribed as I wanted to quit opioids. He said it would assist with process. He started me on 8 mg when I was also taking 150 mg Lyrica 3x day. I OD’d almost died. No one knew what problem was but lucky for me a PA in ER had recently seen article about some patients having issues with two meds. Three doses narcan pulled me out of bad situation.

It's easy enough to "Google" any 2 or 3 meds to check for interactions. Something your pharmacist SHOULD HAVE DONE if they didn't already know.
