Lyrica have any dairy or corn?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for Lyrica

Short answer: Lyrica (pregabalin) itself doesn’t contain dairy or corn. But the capsules/tablets can include inactive ingredients (excipients) that sometimes come from dairy or corn sources, and the exact list can vary by country, manufacturer, and lot.

What to do to be sure:
- Check the “Inactive ingredients” or “Excipients” section on your exact product label or the patient information leaflet that comes with the medicine.
- If you don’t have the label handy, ask your pharmacist to confirm whether lactose (milk sugar) or corn-derived ingredients are in your specific product.
- If you have a dairy or corn allergy/intolerance, or you’re avoiding dairy/corn for other reasons, discuss with your prescriber and pharmacist. They may be able to verify the exact ingredients or suggest alternatives.

If you tell me your country, brand vs generic, and dosage, I can help you look up the typical excipients you might see on that product.
