Stopping a tablet

2023-09-12 07:12:16
Dear doctor, Few months back I suffered from Herpes. At that time doctor prescribed me PREGABALIN M 75. Now it's cured but I am not able to stop the medication because only few days back my father expired and I suffered from depression and anxiety. So doctor asked me to continue the tablet. Now I have gained more weight. Is it because of PREGABALIN M 75? if yes, kindly help me in this. I still feel anxious if I don't take the tablet. Please help me

You can stop pregabalin and replace it with some daily lifestyle modifications or placebos. It's not your physical dependency it's your mental dependency more.

If there is no pain you can stop the medication . Consult further for anxiety and depression symptoms. That need different treatment and detailed history.
