What is Lyrica

Lyrica is an oral drug for muscle, nerve, or joint pain management. Due to the drug’s effect on the CNS, specific signals can’t reach the receptors; therefore, the pain calms down, and the quality of life improves.

Of course, Lyrica can’t be considered a permanent solution for muscle or joint pain. To heal, you’ll need to follow the doctor’s recommendations and reduce the stress you put on an injured part of your body.

If you are on an AAS cycle and one of the compound’s side effects is joint pain, Lyrica will help to mitigate it, allowing you to continue intense training.

Lyrica Benefits

Lyrica is useful in reducing pain perception, whether the athlete has been injured, overtrained, or experiencing side effects from an AAS. It’s important to note that if you have an injury, you need to follow medical recommendations and let the body recover.

Lyrica Side Effects

Possible side effects include:

Vision disturbances;
Dizziness and fatigue;
Dry mouth;
Water retention;
Nausea;
Limbs swelling;
Chest pain;
Nosebleeds.

Side effects can subside over time. It depends on the individual’s reaction, since some users do not experience side effects, while others report them going away after a few weeks.

If you have exceeded the recommended dosage, you can start feeling anxious or distressed, passive, or go into a seizure.

Lyrica Contraindications

Lyrica can’t be taken by those who have been diagnosed with severe cardiovascular disorders, renal dysfunction, or hemophilia.

Lyrica Dosage

One tablet contains 75 mg of Pregabalin. It’s common to split the dosage and take 2 or 3 tablets per day for pain management.

If you’ve skipped the dose, you can take it as soon as possible. Of course, if it’s not the time for your next dose. Doubling down can result in a higher risk of side effects.
