• How and when to take it

  Pregabalin is a prescription medicine. It's important to take it as instructed by your doctor.

  How much will I take?

  The usual dose of pregabalin is between 150mg and 600mg a day split into 2 or 3 separate doses.

  If you are taking pregabalin as a liquid, 2.5ml is usually the same as taking a single 50mg capsule. Always check the label.

  How to take it

  You can take pregabalin with or without food, but it's best to be consistent each day. Try to space your doses evenly through the day.

  Swallow pregabalin capsules whole with a drink of water or juice. Do not chew them.

  If you are taking pregabalin as a liquid, it will come with a syringe or spoon to measure your dose. Do not use a kitchen spoon as it will not give the right amount. If you don't have a measuring spoon or syringe, ask your pharmacist for one.

  Will my dose go up or down?

  To prevent side effects, your doctor will prescribe a low dose to start with and then increase it over a few days.

  Once you find a dose that suits you, it will usually then stay the same.

  How long will I take it for?

  If you have epilepsy, it is likely that once your illness is under control you will continue to take pregabalin for many years.

  If you are taking pregabalin for nerve pain or anxiety it is likely that once your symptoms have gone you will continue to take it for several months to stop them coming back.
