Hi, i do are for your concern.
Tramadol is an opioid analgesic that will cause sedation to some extent, and at higher doses the sedation will be much pronounced.
lyrica on itself will do the job for fibromyalgia.
hence reducing the dosage of tramadol will be wise in your case.
need not worry about this change in medicine dosage.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
