Pregabalin use and side effects statistics generation

Posted by sbelur @sbelur, 20 hours ago

We all have heard from various sources that Pregabalin/Lyrica and Gabapentin may cause cognitive decline and memory loss. Since there is lot of actual data within us here in this support group, how about if we create a database with years of use and extent of cognitive decline if any? If people here are willing to share this I will create an input form which people can fill and submit . We can then get real data on the side effects. Pl comment.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

I had been taking Gabapentin 300mg X3 daily for years with no memory loss (short term or long), just constipation issues. My pain management doctor switched me to Pregabalin back in April 2026, first at 75mg X3 daily, and then to 150mg X3, and now 200mg X3, also with no memory loss of any kind. I seem to be tolerating it quite well. I guess maybe check back in a year for long term effects.
