Is Gralise Advisable Instead Of Lyrica And Cymbalta For Peripheral Nephropathy?
I have just been prescribed Gralise for pheripheral neuropathy.. I have tried Lyrica with alot of dizziness and Cymbalta without much results. Im 63 and have become more aware of the meds I take not wanting to take anything I dont absolutely must take. Somewhat worred about if the side effects will out weigh the good? You opinion please.

Dear patient
Gralise contains gabapentin which is prescribed for post herpatic neuralgia and peripheral neuropathy pain. It can be used instead of lyrica. It has same mechanism of action as lyrica. But advise should be taken from Your treating doctor before switching between drugs.
