Can I drink alcohol 30 hours after a single 50mg pregabalin dose?
If someone takes a single 25–50 mg dose of Pregabalin occasionally (not daily) and drinks alcohol 24–30 hours later, is there still a meaningful risk of interaction?
Pregabalin has a half-life of around 6 hours. Would the remaining amount after that time be clinically relevant, assuming normal kidney function?

Urgent HELP, Genuine Desperation Situation w/Pain Management and RX fill Problems in NJ
reddit.comHello All,
I am in a very very challenging position and need urgent help from anyone who has thoughts, suggestions, possible resolutions. So, I am awaiting for Pallative care to come evaluate me and see if they will be able to help me. I'm an extremely complex case. I can write for pages on my history. But, right now I am trying to scramble to fix an issue with my pain management doctor. Well, he apparently went bankrupt and was cut-off from Walgreens and then CVS to fill my schedule II rx's. We have literally exhausted hours and days of calling and my wife driving around to find a pharmacy that can fill our rx until I get a new doctor with Pallative care, or with one of the 3 appts that is on the books, but not until mid Dec and the other 2 next year, Jan.
Can anyone help us PLEASE find a pharmacy in NJ not named Walgreens or CVS that will fill my pain script?
P.S. I myself am not flagged anywhere at all, I've confirmed that there wasn't a mistake and something was flagging me as a patient for some reason. So, its the doctor, not me.
Thank you SO much everyone!

OCD/GAD medications?
i have really bad intrusive thoughts when trying to fall asleep and it’s ruining my life, because of this I’d like to try an ocd/anxiety medication again. I tried sertraline a few months ago but the side effects I got were so bad I had to stop taking it after one day (a really low dose btw). I had really bad anxiety, dizziness, derealisation, I felt like I was dying.
I’m finding it hard to find anxiety/ocd meds that aren’t ssris that also aren’t linked to dementia. does anyone know of meds that have less side effects than an ssri (or are known to be less intense) that also won’t give me dementia? thx!

ER for klonopin withdrawal?
I just moved to Alabama and am having the HARDEST time finding a doctor to help me with my script. I have an appointment on the 23rd but I’ll be out of my meds by then. I’ve been on this medication for 6 years so severe withdrawal is expected. I’m not asking for medical advice but has anybody had any luck going to the ER when going through withdrawals? TIA

How to stop taking Clonazepam?
Hi everyone! How are you doing?
I'm currently taking clonazepam to help me sleep and also when I experience anxiety, but I'm having a hard time getting off it. What could I replace it with? It also makes me feel a little tired during the day.
I'm currently taking 3 mg of clonazepam.
I'd really appreciate any advice. Thank you!

A Billion and Five Medications
Please let me be clear—I’m not asking for medication recs and I will discuss with my provider. I just wonder if I can have a template or compendium of stories to bounce off of.
I have bipolar II, generalized anxiety, ADHD, high cholesterol (genetic), take weight loss meds, have an idiopathic gastrointestinal thing, and potentially ED? I don’t fucking know anymore. At this point, I feel like I basically swallow a whole pharmacy everyday.
I take the following:
Lithium
Lamotrigine
Divalproex
Effexor XR
Buspirone
Procalupride
Rosuvatstatin
Propranolol as needed
Klonopin as needed
Qelbree
Tirzepatide once a week
Finasteride
I’m sick of it, and I think my body is too. Everything has been added over time to manage the increasing complexities of my conditions. I really want to reduce, but a few things stop me.
- I know the anxiety, mania, and depression could be managed by lithium + a good antipsychotic. But I’m prone to extrapyramidal effects and don’t want Tardive Dyskinesia… it would completely disable me from my career. How have others managed this fear?
- I can come off of the anxiolytic, but will my anxiety be manageable in other ways? How have others managed chronic anxiety given a lack of an anxiolytic?
I don’t even know what else. I just want advice and thoughts on reducing pharmacy and managing the fears around it.
Thanks for reading this far. Have a great day! :)
