>I was on Lyrica for some time for GAD and panic disorder. I stated at 300mg per day and went up to the maximum dose of 600mg. It was mildly effective to start with but it soon faded until it had no beneficial effect at all, even at the top dose. It was fairly good with side effects. I just got some forgetfulness and also tended to experience weird dreams. Didn't get any weight gain at all.
