I can not answer your question as I have not used lyrica do not know people in the US who have. It has been approved in the UK and EU for use in generalized anxiety disorder. As you probably know it is a form of Neurontin that is much more concenterated and supposedly has fewer side effects because of the dose is much smaller. None of the pdocs I work with are currently using it--there are many posts on this Board that might be helpful. Same for Lamictal--I am not conversant with it--all I know is that is approved as an anticonvulsant, minimizes possibility of mania in bipolar and has a number of off label uses--good luck
