I take Gralise which is time released neurotin. I take 1,200mg a day before bed so I sleep through the side effects. The down side is it's expensive and took me over a year to get the insurance company to approve it.

I tried Lyrica and would have considered taking it I just didn't have the time to fight with the insurance company to get the stronger dose approved. At some point I will try it again, when I have to time to fight the fight with the insurance.
