Should I Continue Lyrica Tablet If Vision Is Affected And Feeling Off Balance?

I have had only one 75mg Lyrica tablet last night as prescribed by Dr. and am off balance and my vision is affected. The Dr. said to try them out for 14 nights. I am not depressed and the DR. made a point of saying same but I have trouble sleeping and get very tired. Should I stop the Lyrica or keep trialing them? Thanks

Hi! Blurring of vision and change in walking and balance are known side effects of Lyrica.I'd recommend you stop taking the medicine and get in touch with your doctor for a reappraisal and possibly an alternate medication. All the best!
