Recent increase from 300mg to 600mg advice please

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hello everybody, I hope you can help me with the recent medication change, my dose of pregabalin was increased from 300mg to 600mg 8 days ago and I'm feeling so foggy headed, anxious and shakey. Is this normal on a dose increase? I would really appreciate some advice, am I being impatient and can anybody offer me any advice, thank you, Gary x
