Frequently Asked Questions
Is pregabalin the same as Lyrica?
Yes — pregabalin is the generic form of Lyrica. It has been available as a generic in the US since 2019 and costs $30–$60/month versus $350+ for brand Lyrica.
Is pregabalin stronger than gabapentin?
Pregabalin has more linear, predictable absorption and requires fewer daily doses. At therapeutic doses, it is considered more potent per mg than gabapentin. The clinical choice depends on individual response and cost.
Is pregabalin a controlled substance?
Yes — pregabalin is DEA Schedule V in the US, reflecting its lower abuse potential compared to Schedule IV benzodiazepines but still requiring a prescription and cannot be called in in some states.
Does pregabalin work for anxiety?
Pregabalin is FDA-approved for generalised anxiety disorder in Europe and used off-label in the US for anxiety. Several trials show it is as effective as SSRIs and benzodiazepines for GAD.
What does generic pregabalin cost through Script Unlock?
Generic pregabalin through Script Unlock pharmacies typically costs $30–$55/month — a significant saving over brand Lyrica which can exceed $400/month.
