Subject: Lyrica and multivitamins

Question
I take Lyrica 150 mg for fibromyalgia and when I take my multivitamin I get headaches.  I also suffer from migraines, but this headache is not like a migraine.  Is it being caused by the combination; if so, do I have to stop taking my vitamins?

Answer
    Lyrica has not been shown to have any documented drug interactions with multivitamins.  It does not seem logical to conclude that the combination of Lyrica and multivitamins is the cause of your headaches.  If you have had a significant change in the frequency and severity of your headaches it would be in your best interest for you to talk to your doctor about your headaches as soon as possible.

Thanks

Barb Judge
