Hello,

Neuropathy may occur as an adverse effect of Lyrica in about 2-9% of population that take Lyrica. The following are few points to be discussed with your doctor:
1) Change or reduction in dose of Lyrica
2) If possible, any alternative drug to Lyrica
3) Neuropathy treatment

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pallavi M., Anesthesiologist
