Lyrica is a medication that is primarily used to treat seizures, nerve pain, and fibromyalgia. However, it has also been found to be effective in treating anxiety disorders. According to a press release by Pfizer [2], the addition of Lyrica significantly improved generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) symptoms in patients who responded only partially to previous GAD treatments. The study found that patients who received Lyrica had a significant reduction in their anxiety symptoms compared to those who received a placebo. Another study published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology [3] found that Lyrica was effective in reducing anxiety symptoms in patients with social anxiety disorder (SAD). The study found that Lyrica was well-tolerated and had a low risk of side effects. However, it is important to note that Lyrica is not FDA-approved for the treatment of anxiety disorders [1]. Therefore, it is important to discuss with a healthcare provider if Lyrica is an appropriate treatment option for anxiety, as well as to carefully monitor any potential side effects.
