1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE
LYRICA is indicated for:
Management of neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy
Management of postherpetic neuralgia
Adjunctive therapy for adult patients with partial onset seizures
Management of fibromyalgia
Management of neuropathic pain associated with spinal cord injury
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
LYRICA is given orally with or without food.
When discontinuing LYRICA, taper gradually over a minimum of 1 week.
2.1 Neuropathic Pain Associated with Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy
The maximum recommended dose of LYRICA is 100 mg three times a day (300 mg/day) in patients with creatinine clearance of at least 60 mL/min. Begin dosing at 50 mg three times a day (150 mg/day). The dose may be increased to 300 mg/day within 1 week based on efficacy and tolerability. Because LYRICA is eliminated primarily by renal excretion, adjust the dose in patients with reduced renal function [see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION (2.6)].
Although LYRICA was also studied at 600 mg/day, there is no evidence that this dose confers additional significant benefit and this dose was less well tolerated. In view o
