I've seen a video of one guy who is permanently affected by the effects of this medication which makes me very very nervous to start taking it. Is this the minority of people as i don't want to become addicted to something, especially if it doesn't work and i have to come off it.
Can i take my citalopram at the same time as the pregabalin as well? I forgot to ask the GP
