Default Lyrica

How much weight have yall gained . Lyrica is the sister med to Neurontin and weight gain is a side effect.

I haven't gained any! Suprisingly, I am one of the few who has no adverse side effects from either Lyrica or Neurontin. I have only received benefit from them.

I didn't just gain weight with Neurontin, I became bloated with fluid. I could see it in my ankles among other places.

It's good to know that Lyrica has that side so I know to avoid it.
