I have just been prescribed pregablin 50mg for lower back pain possibly ciatica,(never been examined)This was after I had a heart attack and fitted with a stent 4 weeks ago,and had to come off Amitrityline as didnt mix with heart meds.I am horrified at the list of side effects and also it says not to take with heart problems,so really scared to take it,should I contact doctor as I dont think I should have been prescribed this med?

    Hi I was taking pregabalin 150mg daily and I was on heart medication as I’ve had a heart attack and I’ve 4 stents . I’ve now come off of it as it wasn’t working and it did take a bit to come off of ( I was only on it 5 months ), but if u feel uneasy about taking it with your meds I would seek your drs advice
