What Is The Dosage Of Lyrica For Burning And Travelling Pain?

I have been prescribed Lyrica for burning and travelling pain associated with Shingles. My GP said to call after I had taken for 3 days. Day 1 - 1 25mg tab, Day 2 - 2x25mg tab and Day 3 = 3x25 mg tab. I cannot get in touch with him for 5 days, should I continue with 3 tabs until my next visit? I am also taking endone.

HI

You need to continue the 3 tabs per day for now

The maximum dose for Lyrica is 300mg per day so you aren't nearly at that mark right now
