Pfizer Lyrica Review

It states on Web MD that Lyrica is used to "treat pain caused by nerve damage due to diabetes and shingles (herpes zoster) infection. It is also used to treat pain in people with fibromyalgia."
What it does not tell you is that is is also useful for nerve pain from an amputation. I had a finger amputated and was taking heavy narcotic drugs for the pain but when I was finally able to afford Lyrica I was able to cut back substantially on the narcotics.
I did not know however that there is now a generic for it. It cost me $50 per month for my prescription even with insurance but it is well worth it. Perhaps with a generic it will be less now.
