Stopping Lyrica® (pregabalin) too quickly can cause seizures to worsen. Other symptoms of Lyrica withdrawal can include insomnia, headaches, and diarrhea. In most cases, your healthcare provider will suggest that you slowly wean yourself off Lyrica (over at least one week).
 
Even if you are switching to another epilepsy medication, your healthcare provider may still recommend slowly stopping Lyrica. The exact way in which your healthcare provider suggests stopping Lyrica will be affected by several factors, including your Lyrica dosage and how long you have been taking Lyrica.
