Can Valium be taken while on Lyrica?
Patient: I had three surgeries on my ankle in June. A few days ago I finished taking my Oxycontin and lyrica after 47 days on them in the hospital. I was not told about withdrawals and suffered for two days before my doctor put me back on lyrica to taper off. Now I m extremely restless and can t sleep. I m so exhausted. Can I take a Valium or some other sleep aid with 75mg of lyrica? Doctor: Hello,  You can safely take valium while on lyrica.  It will not interact with each other or affect the efficacy of one another.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
