Our branches in other cities

 

Lyrica (pregabalin) addiction treatment in Kropyvnytskyi is provided at the branch of the Transformation Medical Center at 23g Vasylia Nikitina St. Treatment starts with a consultation with an addiction doctor: the doctor assesses the severity of the addiction and the patient’s physical condition, and then draws up an individual plan – from detox and withdrawal relief to psychotherapy and relapse prevention.

We work anonymously: we do not register patients with the addiction registry and do not disclose treatment information. The branch is open daily from 8:00 to 19:00; you can book at (099) 103 05 05. If the patient refuses treatment, our specialists will advise relatives on what to do.

Lyrica: what this drug is and what it is used for

Lyrica (pregabalin) is an antiepileptic medication used to relieve neuropathic pain and control seizures. In medicine, Lyrica is prescribed for generalized anxiety disorder and diabetic neuropathy. However, because it can cause euphoria, pregabalin is often misused, which leads to severe prescription drug addiction.

Therapeutic use vs. drug abuse

Parameter Therapeutic use Abuse (addiction)
Purpose Treating pain, epilepsy Achieving euphoria, a “high”
Dosage Strictly as prescribed by a doctor 3–10 times the normal dose
Control Medical supervision Self-medication, buying without a prescription

Many patients do not understand at first what Lyrica really is. They take Lyrica pills on the advice of friends or to relieve stress, without realizing that Lyrica (pregabalin) is a powerful psychoactive substance. I often see how seemingly innocent use turns into a strong physical craving.

Lyrica (pregabalin)

The effects of Lyrica and signs of developing addiction

When abused, Lyrica produces an effect similar to strong alcohol intoxication, with a feeling of serenity and lightness. Pregabalin’s narcotic effect comes from suppressing central nervous system activity, which gives a false sense of comfort. What effect will dominate after a month of use? Unfortunately, it will no longer be euphoria, but just an attempt to avoid the pain of withdrawal.

Specialists at the Transformation Medical Center identify the following markers of addiction:

  • Loss of control: taking Lyrica pills becomes a daily ritual.
  • Growing tolerance: the usual dose of pregabalin no longer gives the desired effect.
  • Personality changes: secretiveness, lying, aggression when the drug is not available.
  • Social decline: problems at work and broken ties with loved ones.

Side effects of long-term Lyrica use

Lyrica’s side effects show up as damage to almost every body system. Long-term pregabalin use causes cognitive deficits: it becomes hard to put thoughts into words, and memory and concentration deteriorate. Physically, there is chronic swelling, tremor of the limbs and impaired balance.

In my practice, there have been cases when long-term addiction led to deep depression with suicidal thoughts. Drug addiction treatment in such situations is impossible without a qualified addiction psychiatrist.

Pregabalin withdrawal: how long it lasts and how it shows

Pregabalin (Lyrica) withdrawal lasts on average 7 to 14 days, with psychosomatic symptoms peaking on days 3–4. Withdrawal shows up as heavy sweating, diarrhea, insomnia and unbearable anxiety. It is extremely hard to get through this period alone because of the high risk of relapse and possible seizures.

How to ease Lyrica withdrawal: professional help

To ease Lyrica withdrawal, comprehensive medical detoxification in an inpatient unit is needed. At our medical center in Kropyvnytskyi, we use modern detox protocols that safely relieve withdrawal. Professional help minimizes the risks to the heart and brain.

The recovery program at the Transformation center includes:

  1. Detox: rapid removal of pregabalin from the blood with IV drips.
  2. Stabilization: restoring sleep and correcting emotional state.
  3. Psychotherapy: working through the reasons that led to drug use.
  4. Rehabilitation: returning the patient to society and preventing relapse.

FAQ

What is Lyrica and why is it prescribed?

What effect does Lyrica produce when abused?
In high doses, Lyrica produces intoxication, euphoria, relaxation and sociability. This narcotic effect quickly turns into severe addiction that requires professional treatment.
Does Lyrica cure or only relieve pain?

Easing Lyrica withdrawal on your own is extremely difficult and dangerous. Without medical help, the risk of seizures and psychosis is high, so detox is best done under the supervision of an addiction doctor.
